| Prostate cancer affects one in six men in the United States. The KEYS100 raises money for local educational outreach and free prostate cancer screenings, and research to find a cure. Donations are made to The Richard J. Fox Foundation, a 501(c)3 charitable organization, for further distribution to select charities to fund the effort.
The Richard J. Fox Foundation, established in 1988, is dedicated to increasing awareness of prostate cancer through education and outreach and for finding a cure through the funding of cutting edge research. Since its founding, over $2 million has been raised to establish one of the largest free screening programs in the United States.
The Richard J. Fox Foundation funds have also generated NIH grants for the Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center at Georgetown University, a Foundation funding priority. New research programs for gene mapping and ground breaking work using MRIs with prostate cancer patients are also underway.
Since 2005, funding has also been provided for South Florida charities and medical facilities for local educational outreach and free prostate cancer screenings. |
