About The Event

The Strong Arm Selfie Challenge is Fight CRC’s signature team-building fundraiser for Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month each March—and it’s all about showing up, having fun, and making an impact together.

Throughout the month, employees are invited to wear blue, flex their strong arm, and snap a photo to share on social media or within their workplace. Whether it’s posted on Slack, Teams, an intranet, or displayed around the office, every strong arm shared helps fuel the mission.

For each photo submitted, participating sponsors donate $1 to Fight CRC—turning team spirit and friendly competition into real-world support for the colorectal cancer community. Participants can also create personal fundraising pages to rally coworkers, friends, and family to join the movement and help raise critical funds.

It’s simple, inclusive, and fun—and every flex helps support patients, caregivers, and survivors while bringing teams together for a cause that matters.
