Why this is important to me!
Being a firefighter for almost 29 years has been a rewarding and satisfying career. It is a fact that firefighters have a much higher risk of getting cancer than the general public. But, we all have had friends and family diagnosed with cancer, some with positive outcomes and sadly others have not been so fortunate.
Detectogether is a nonprofit that fills a gap in healthcare by providing a lifesaving 3 Step Detect early cancer detection program for young adults, first responders and workplace employees. Early detection is an advantage we all deserve.
Please consider making any donation to this great charity because I believe early detection gives us all a fighting chance.
if you're unable to make a donation just think of me on August 18th as this is my first road race and I'm not a runner. Yikes!!
Thank you,
Joe Solomon
Description
The worst cancer diagnosis is a late one. That's why support for DetecTogether is so crucial. They teach people how to detect cancer early when it’s most treatable and survivable.
40% of the population will face a cancer diagnosis. One of the most important factors in surviving cancer is the stage at which it is first detected. Early detection makes all the difference.
DetecTogether provides a simple, powerful strategy for detecting cancer early. They educate in schools, present to community groups, and reach out to those at high risk, such as firefighters, empowering people to achieve better healthcare overall.
Their life-saving presentations and information are delivered at no cost, thanks to the kindness and generosity of donors.
Consider supporting this cause. Together, we can make a difference in the fight against cancer.
