3 Dudes in a Canoe

The folks at Susie’s Cause continue to be amazed and humbled by all of the creative, heart-felt ways that people from around the country have used their skills and interests to further our life saving mission nationwide. The Three Dudes – Jeff, Kevin and David Moore were casting about for a way to honor their mom, Kathy Moore, after she passed away from colon cancer at the young age of 54. The three brothers eventually decided that dedicating their participation in a 100 mile paddling race down the Kansas River from Manhattan, Kansas to Lawrence, Kansas would be an epic adventure worthy of their mom. Other adventured followed and we continue to look forward to hearing from them as they plan new races and raise funds for our cause each year.

We are honored that the 3 Dudes teamed up with the Susan Cohan Colon Cancer Foundation to help raise money for colon cancer awareness and research. The Susan Cohan Colon Cancer Foundation was formed in Susan (Susie) Cohan’s honor. Her vision was that no other family would experience the pain that her family endured. Susie was the same age as Kathy when she died – 54.

The Dudes went on to create a blog and a Facebook page to highlight their adventures and support Susie’ Cause.
