Brown Medicine and the City of East Providence are going blue for colon cancer.
When: March 21, 2022
Where: East Providence City Hal, Outdoors, 145 Taunton Ave. East Providence
Time: 6-7 p.m.
Brown Medicine Endoscopy Center, an outpatient medical suite dedicated to the prevention and treatment of digestive issues including colon cancer, is holding a special ceremonial event to commemorate March as Colon Cancer Awareness Month.
The general public is invited to attend, as are colon cancer survivors and their families. All are encouraged to wear blue clothing and bring a flashlight or cell phone with flashlight functionality to participate in a “Blue Light Walk” around the building. City Hall’s exterior lights will be temporarily replaced with blue bulbs to bathe the walkers in blue-colored light, in a visual support of colorectal cancer awareness.
