The Colorado Cancer Foundation (CCF) is funded through generous donations, and a series of charity-based events, including two virtual runs in 20020, The Run for the Cure, and the Close to Home, in honor of Dr. Bryon Jon Miller, who is currently battling Cancer.

Thanks to a series of generous donations from race participants and individual donors, most notably the Cook family, the Colorado Cancer Foundation has been able to support the University of Colorado Anschutz Campus in an unprecedented way, donating $100,000 to cancer research laboratories in 2020 alone.

In a year when people are struggling the world over, and funding is running short, the CCF wishes to thank all who gave so freely, so generously of their time and money.
