Our studio has produced some moving Public Service Announcements (PSAs)
specifically designed to educate and equip college students to talk to
their parents about the importance of colon cancer screening.
These PSAs have been approved by the American Cancer Society and will be
broadcast on many major college and university campuses through their
on-campus TV network systems. |

Fast facts about colon cancer as
expressed in the PSAs: it kills more people than AIDS and Breast Cancer combined 150 people die from colorectal cancer each day (about one every nine minutes) it is 95% preventable if caught early by screening if you wait for the first symptoms you have a 10 to 30 % chance to survive |

Brady Moore is a wonderful young woman who unfortunately lost her mother
to colon cancer while she was a Sophomore in college. Her plea on
the PSAs is for other college age students to speak to their parents
about prevention before it is too late because they "may be the voice
that saves their parents lives."
