Rizwan Jafri: Our annual Colon Cancer Awareness 5K event

Rizwan Jafri, Founder of Advanced Digestive Solutions shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Come and join us March 1st, 2025 at Freestone Park in Gilbert, AZ in our annual Colon Cancer Awareness 5K event!

Help us raise awareness in the importance of screening modalities as well recognizing the alarm signs and symptoms of colon cancer.

Few facts about colon cancer:

– Colorectal cancer is the fourth most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death.
– Colorectal cancer affects men and women, and people of all races and nationalities.
– 30% of CRC diagnoses are under the age of 55.

This year we are excited to have guest speaker Toufic Kachaamy from City of Hope and in addition to some education we also will have a kids fun run, music, snacks, photo booth, taco food truck, dutch bros coffee and so much more!!

Thanks to few of our local and national sponsors! This event would not be possible without your support.”

Toufic Kachaamy, Chief of Medicine and Medical Director of Gastroenterology at City of Hope Phoenix, shared this post, adding:

“So grateful for you Rizwan Jafri and the Colon Cancer Coalition for the work you are doing on behalf of the patients and colon cancer prevention.

It is a privilege for me to be a part of this event and great cause.”
