"When I was diagnosed with prostate cancer, I realized how important early detection really is. I don't want anyone else to go through what I did. That's why I'm committed to educating our community — so MORE men can catch it early, get treated, and keep living their lives. Screening saves lives, plain and simple," - Gary Davis, prostate cancer survivor and advocate with the Knowledge & Willpower Network

Why This Matters:
1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime.
Every year, about 4,300 men in Wisconsin are diagnosed with prostate cancer.
Sadly, around 600 men in Wisconsin lose their lives to prostate cancer each year.
African American men are 2.1 times more likely to die from prostate cancer compared to white men .
Early detection is key: when caught early, prostate cancer has a nearly 100% 5-year survival rate .
