Saturday, May 30 | Gala & Auction Night

Monday, June 1 | Golf Tournament

The DetecTogether Gala, Auction & Golf Tournament brings together everything that makes a night, and a day, worth showing up for: great people, incredible experiences, and a powerful purpose.

Because behind every moment of fun is something far more meaningful: helping more people be able to say, “We found it early” and beat cancer.

When you show up, you help save lives.

Gala & Auction Highlights:

Golf Tournament Includes:

Every ticket purchased, every bid placed, every swing taken fuels this work of putting a simple, life-saving plan into more hands.

Join us. Be part of what makes early detection possible.

May is recognized as Skin Cancer and Melanoma Awareness Month. It’s also Bladder Cancer Awareness Month.

You’ll see reminders to wear sunscreen. To check your skin. To pay attention to symptoms like blood in your urine. This awareness matters.

But the next step is what saves lives. What do you do when something doesn’t feel right?  The “right” time to act is not always obvious.

Sandy Danault, DetecTogether's Senior Director of Programs & Partnerships, met up with Kory Pearn, Founder of Crackyl Magazine at the 2026 FDIC Conference last week. Crackyl featured a DetecTogether article on how the fire service can "push back on their cancer problem" in their latest issue!

On International Firefighters Day, we honor the fallen and celebrate the lifetime of service given by all. 

DetecTogether's program is available at no cost so you can take action early to help save your own life.

This program provides practical early cancer detection training showing you what to look for, when to act, and how to navigate screening and follow-up care.

If you remember looking things up in the Yellow Pages,
then maybe it's time for a colonoscopy.

While the Yellow Pages may be a relic, the message is very current: screenings and early action save lives. Colonoscopies can detect cancer early,  and even prevent cancer by removing precancerous polyps.

Words cannot express the pride we have in our amazing Charity Athletes! It was a cold day, but their determination and impact shone through with every mile. They didn’t train for months to just run a marathon. They ran to help more people recognize the early signs of cancer and act sooner when it’s most treatable and they can get back to their lives.

Thank you to Betty, Bryn, Francesco, Joe, John, Mike, Kacie, Kelly, Liam, Michael, Rebecca, and Sara! You are heroes!

It is a recognition that reflects something bigger than us.

It reflects a community of donors making life-saving action possible.

Because of your support, more people have the skills to recognize subtle health changes that may be signaling something serious and know what to do next. That matters because most cancers aren’t found through routine screenings. That moment—when something feels off, and a decision is made—is where outcomes are determined and too often, people aren’t prepared for it.

Together, we’re closing this critical gap  - equipping people with the skills and confidence to trust what they’re noticing, speak up, and seek care sooner, when it can make all the difference.

The students at St. John's School High School in Shrewsbury, MA, adhere to a strict dress code. Shirts, ties, jackets, no jeans, and... NO FACIAL HAIR! So when they were given the opportunity to donate $20 to get hairy for a month, many of them jumped on it!

“Mustache March” became a student-led movement raising $1,160 for men’s health and early cancer detection education.

But it didn’t stop there. Students brought in DetecTogether’s 3 Steps Detect® to build real-life early detection skills that can save lives.

Because awareness isn’t enough — knowing when to act and having the confidence to do so can change outcomes.

Check it out! Muscle memory GALORE!
