The Colorectal Cancer Alliance is dedicated to ending colorectal cancer through awareness, prevention, patient support, and funding critical research. Our mission is to save lives by advocating for early detection, improving patient care, and increasing access to life-saving treatments. We provide a wide range of resources to patients, caregivers, and survivors while increasing awareness through education and outreach efforts.

The Blue Hope Bash Chicago is one of our key fundraising events, taking place on Friday, May 2, 2025, at Galleria Marchetti. This event brings together supporters, advocates, and survivors to raise critical funds for colorectal cancer programs. Emmy-winning ABC7 anchor Tanja Babich will emcee the evening, making it a night of impact, connection, and philanthropy.

All funds raised go directly toward our initiatives, making a tangible impact in the fight against colorectal cancer and supporting those who need it most. Donations support efforts including:

• Providing financial assistance to patients facing treatment costs
• Funding vital research to advance treatments and find a cure
• Promoting preventive screenings to increase early detection and save lives
• Advocating for policies that improve care and access for colorectal cancer patients
