More about Alive and Kickathon
AliveAndKickn uses the sport of soccer to raise awareness of colon cancer. Colon Cancer is the number one cancer killer of non-smokers in the US and there is a severe lack of awareness of the symptoms and benefits of early screening and detection compared to other cancers. By creating a 24 hour soccer marathon fundraising game, AliveAndKickn is reaching out to key demographics that wouldn't otherwise have access to the educational information about the disease.
