Nonprofit of the Week
Step Up for Cancer
August 2, 2009
Dick's Sporting Good Park
We've all been associated with cancer in some way. Parents, friends, siblings, aunts, uncles, favorite teachers, celebrities...the list goes on. In the past 20 years, cancer research has seen amazing progress in providing cures and new treatments to help extend the lives of those diagnosed with cancer. However cancer still accounts for nearly one-quarter of deaths in the US and it is estimated that about 1.5 million new cases of cancer will be diagnosed in 2009. The risk of an American man developing cancer over his lifetime is one in two and approximately one in three women in the United States will develop cancer over her lifetime.
As you can see, there is still much work to be done, both for research, for treatment and for compassionate care of patients and families of cancer patients.
This is one of these situations where seems hard to convince ourselves that we can have much of an impact as individuals. But when we think about the type of influence we can have collectively, then we really begin to understand that our individual efforts can help to energize a movement that can have a massive impact in fighting this dreadful disease.
That's where Step up for Cancer comes in.
Step up for Cancer will be held on August 2 at Dick's Sporting Goods Park. Participants earn pledges for their cancer charity of choice by walking up and down a portion or all of the 33 rows of stairs at Dick’s. Anyone – regardless of their age or athletic ability – is invited to walk, climb, or run the course circling the interior of the stadium. There will also be an Elite timed heat for competitive racers. Spectators will have an unprecedented sporting experience with a 360 degree view of all of the athletes competing, while some of Denver’s best musicians entertain the crowd and athletes alike.
Step Up For Cancer is hosted by Generations Cancer Foundation (GCF) on behalf of more than a dozen participating nonprofit organizations that provide services, research and other advocacy efforts related to cancer. Each organization will benefit equally from sponsorship dollars and general donations. Individual pledges will go to the nonprofit organization selected by the donating party.
The nonprofit organizations aligning and partnering with Step Up For Cancer will be situated around the stadium concourse creating “Community Villages” that will provide a vast amount of information regarding the many facets of cancer including healthy living, prevention, early detection, treatment, access to care, patient and caregiver support, research, advocacy and survivorship.
Founded in 2000, GCF is a Colorado 501 (c) 3 nonprofit organization focused on raising awareness and funds for cancer research while involving multiple generations in philanthropic work for the future of our community. Cost for participation is $30 which includes a race day bib, exclusive Step Up for Cancer T-shirt and goodie bag. Individuals or teams can also raise additional funds by asking for pledges from friends and family, knowing that their pledges will go directly to their cancer charity of choice. Step Up For Cancer organizers estimate over 2,500 participant of all ages, stages and walks of life will unite to support the many participating cancer organizations and learn more about the cancer resources available. The event will take place from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at
Dick’s Sporting Goods Parks with event partners including CBS4 Denver, Key Bank, Anadarko and Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. To learn more about Step Up for Cancer or to register online for the event, please visit
