Your Impact

Your Impact 👏
Why Now?
In 2025, Cheeky Charity stands at a pivotal moment in its journey to transform lives and improve health outcomes for the LGBTQ+ community. With an ambitious plan to expand our reach and launch new initiatives, we are poised to make a greater impact than ever before. However, to achieve these goals, we need your support.
Our programs are designed to address critical gaps in awareness, education, and support for colorectal and anal cancer prevention and care. Despite our efforts to keep up, the demand for our resources, services, and advocacy efforts continues to grow. Every additional dollar raised will help us:
Expand Educational Programs like the Public Resource and Education Program (PREP), which brings life-saving information to LGBTQ+ healthcare clinics and underserved communities.
Empower Community Voices by funding our Ambassador Program, which trains individuals to become health equity advocates and leaders in their own communities.
Support Survivors through expanded PrideCare Support Services, ensuring patients and caregivers have access to culturally competent peer mentoring, support groups, and resources.
Enhance Visibility with initiatives like the #CheekyChallenge and Cheeky Chats Podcast, amplifying cancer awareness and prevention messages nationwide.
Drive Research and Insights by funding our LGBTQ+ Cancer Needs Survey to identify and address barriers to care in diverse communities.
The urgency to act is now. Colorectal and anal cancers disproportionately impact LGBTQ+ individuals, often due to stigma, lack of awareness, and inadequate access to care. Your contribution helps us not only meet these challenges but exceed them, creating lasting change and equity in healthcare.
