Colorectal cancer will affect 1 in 19 individuals at some point in their lifetime. Screening for colorectal cancer generally starts at age 50 for those without risk factors. The Bobbie Nick Voss Charitable Funds organization provides funding to fight colorectal cancer through awareness, prevention, and early detection. This renewed funding will allow the Hospital to continue to provide screening colonoscopies to at-risk individuals without health insurance through the Community Outreach Health Clinic, and to continue the work of raising awareness among the general public of colorectal cancer and the vital importance of early detection.
