Overview

Mission

The purpose of the organization is to spread awareness about prostate cancer because one out of every seven men gets it. Our organization has also developed a blood test kit using conventional methods that allows Men to get a quick PSA reading which is used as a screening tool for prostate cancer. PSA is prostate specific antigen

What it reported doing in 2025

In 2025 the organization spread awareness about prostate cancer through various publications, podcasts, and personal appearances by president Clark Bartram. We also finished a documentary about Clarks journey from diagnosis to remission that we are hoping to premiere in 2026.
