Additional Info: FUNDRAISE Step Up For Cancer is not about one particular organization or even one type of cancer. It’s about the many individuals and generations that make up our community. We need your help. When you fundraise for Step Up For Cancer, 100% of your pledges or donations go to the participating non-profit organization of your choice. Or you can allow your pledges to be divided equally among all participating organizations. Pledges and donations are 100% tax deductible. COLLABORATION Never before have so many non-profit organizations come together joining forces to provide information to our community. Together, we can do so much more in the fight against cancer than we can do alone. Each participating non-profit will benefit equally from sponsorship dollars and general donations. Individual pledges will go to the non-profit selected by the participant, but donations may be made to any participating non-profit. Your participation will make a difference in the Colorado cancer community.
