What mtgs brings to the community:- raises awareness for colorectal cancer - did you know, 45 is the new 50?- provides colon screenings to patients who may not have the financial means to have one - we provide vouchers to our medical partners, allowing these patients to get screened!- provides financial assistance to patients newly diagnosed with colon cancer who meet poverty guidelines - we've reimbursed medical expenses for over 25 newly diagnosed cancer patients with the funds raised, because of you! Financial assistance program for cancer treatment: thanks to generous support from the community, we created the financial assistance program to help cover various medical treatment expenses for people recently diagnosed with colon cancer.how it works: if you qualify, you are eligible to receive up to $5,000 per person, per year to cover gastrointestinal medical services.
