March is Colon Cancer Prevention Month

Colon cancer is the third most common and second highest cancer-related cause of death in the United States. Yet it is also one of the most preventable forms of cancer. Identifying and removing polyps during screening can decrease the risk of death by 60% to 90%.

Fleming Island Rotary Run and its health care community partners want to team up with you to raise funds that can save lives in North Florida, by preventing this terrible disease.

All funds raised by event participants will benefit Colon Cancer awareness, provide support, and resources for colon cancer prevention.

More information about team fundraising to benefit Colon Cancer will  be posted soon.

To learn more, visit:

Rotary

Apart from our fundraising commitment to prevent colon cancer, registration proceeds from Fleming Island Rotary Run events are used to support many other charitable causes.

We support non-profit organizations operating at the local, regional and international levels, with particular emphasis placed on helping groups that are dedicated to serving the most in need.

Rotary International

Rotary is a worldwide organization of more than 1.2 million business, professional, and community leaders. Members of Rotary clubs, known as Rotarians, provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace in the world.

There are 33,000 Rotary clubs in more than 200 countries and geographical areas. Clubs are nonpolitical, nonreligious, and open to all cultures, races, and creeds. As signified by the motto Service Above Self, Rotary’s main objective is service — in the community, in the workplace, and throughout the world.

Although Rotary clubs develop autonomous service programs, all Rotarians are united in a global campaign to eradicate polio.

Local charities the Rotary Club of Fleming Island and the Rotary Club of Orange Park Sunrise support:

• Brie’s Endless Horizon (Wheel Chair Accessible Playgrounds)
• Clay County Literacy Project
• Concert on the Green
• Council on Aging
• Dictionary Project (Clay County 3rd Grade)
• First Coast Honor Air
• Fleming Island High School Interact Club
• Middleburg High School Interact Club
• St. John’s Country Day School Interact Club
• Clay County Dental Care
• Waste Not Want Not
• Quigley House
• The Way Clinic

The Rotary Club of Orange Park Sunrise is also a member of the Clay Country Chamber of Commerce.
