Prostate Cancer Pittsburgh

Prostate Cancer Pittsburgh is a 501(c) (3) non-profit organization. Our roots go back to 2003 when our first Father's Day Race was run. Since then, we have attended and sponsored health fairs. Most importantly, we have helped screen thousands of men. Prostate Cancer Pittsburgh

has represented Pennsylvania at the annual meeting of the National Association of State Prostate Cancer Coalitions. We have also met with the Allegheny County Department of Health on prostate cancer initiatives and the Pennsylvania Prostate Cancer Coalition.
