Colon cancer is the 2nd most common cancer diagnosed in New York, with a rapid increase in people ages 20-49 newly diagnosed. It is the deadliest cancer in people under 50.

I was diagnosed in 2025, underwent surgery, procedures, hospitalizations, and chemotherapy. This year, I've joined the NYOH Community Cancer Foundation's Colorectal Check Challenge --- to spread the word about the importance of cancer screening and celebrate survivorship. Also, all funds that I raise will stay LOCAL, helping pay for basic needs such as groceries, transportation, and rent for people going through cancer treatment right now.

Looking for other ways to support?

Sunday, March 22 2 pm at The Hot Yoga Spot in Glenmont, I am teaching a donation community yoga class open to everyone to raise money for colon cancer awareness. Details and registration linked here: Hot yoga with Mandy for colon cancer

Sunday, March 29 12-3 Colorectal check challenge closing celebration at Carson's Woodside Tavern in Malta, open to all with some good food, music, and raffle prizes to close out the month. Tickets are on sale now for $30/presale.

Thank you!
