Earn a Blue Star Campaign Make a Donation

CCA's Earn A Blue Star Campaign was launched in March 2008 to support the National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. The campaign serves to raise awareness, educate the public, and generate much needed support to wipe out this disease. CCA is challenging individuals to do something to change the future of colorectal cancer today. Please do your part to change the hundreds of thousands of lives affected by colorectal cancer.

Get involved with the Earn A Blue Star Campaign…

Awareness

  • Distribute colorectal cancer awareness materials in your community (i.e., local stores, places of worship, doctor's offices, community centers, etc.); contact local non-profit organizations such as Gilda's Club, Wellness Community or United Ostomy Association of America about coordinating or participating in an event; or attend a community health fair and provide prevention and early detection information.
  • Contact local media outlets about sharing your story or doing a story about colorectal cancer survivors.
  • Organize or participate in a Blue Star Day event in your community

Fundraising

  • Approach human resources about having Blue Star Denim Dollar Days. Employees would pay to wear jeans on a designated day.
  • Create a tribute page.
