Fundraising for the Susan Cohan Colon Cancer Foundation

Strongwoman 024
Our 2015 Volunteers

As you all know, this contest is a fundraiser for the Susan Cohan Colon Cancer Foundation, Susie’s Cause, a non-profit organization in Baltimore, which works to eliminate colon cancer through the development and dissemination of educational programs focused on prevention, early screening and detection, and aggressive therapeutic intervention. The foundation’s innovative outreach programs have touched thousands of lives and led to significant increases in colon cancer screenings. The President of the Foundation, David Rodman Cohan, an international business attorney, vigorously launched this foundation after the tragic loss of his daughter Susan to colon cancer. Susan Cohan was just forty years old and the mother of two young children when she heard the devastating words “You have colon cancer.” Despite her own suffering, she was always most concerned for the well-being of her family and friends, and with finding a way to spare others the anguish and grief this disease had wrought upon her family. It was Susie’s vision that the foundation would be the international leader in colon cancer prevention, support and treatment.

My sister lost her personal battle with colon cancer last February. She was an amazing woman, a warrior until the day she died. Susie’s Cause supported her throughout her treatments and when she was in remission. She was strong and she was optimistic. She lived her life fully. The resources the foundation provided for her and many like her are amazing. But they cannot do it alone either. This is where your extra help comes in.

As you all know, ALL profit from the contest will go the the Susan Cohan Colon Cancer Foundation. Last year, we raised over $19,000 for the organization. This year, I know that we can raise even more.
