"The vision of St. Anthony Regional Cancer Center is rooted in the organization’s continued commitment to improving the health of the people we serve. Recognizing the need to expand oncology services locally, we took the next steps to enhance access and deliver high-value cancer care close to home.

​

Providing care in a rural farming community naturally brings a higher volume of prostate cancer patients. Through our partnership with Team Blue Iowa, we have gained meaningful access to resources and education for a disease that is often not openly discussed. The voice and advocacy of Team Blue helps remove the stigma surrounding prostate cancer and creates positive momentum to expand conversations around screening, early detection, and treatment.

​

Generous support through Team Blue donations has made a direct impact on our patients’ lives. Gas cards are provided to prostate cancer patients throughout staging, diagnosis, and treatment, helping to ease the financial burden of travel. Additionally, educational materials and supportive resources from Team Blue are given to every newly diagnosed prostate cancer patient, ensuring they feel informed, supported, and empowered throughout their journey. We are thankful for our partnership with Team Blue. Their generosity and mission shows the dedication and commitment to bringing awareness to this disease."

Providing Prostate Cancer Support
& Awareness

Our events and programs are intentionally driven to provide support and awareness to Iowa men and their families who are affected by prostate cancer. 

​

Through advocacy, awareness, and community engagement, we’re working to ensure that no man - and no family - face this journey alone.

Team Blue Iowa is made up of survivors, supporters, and local Iowans who donate their time, talent, and treasures to ensure that every dollar we raise goes directly back to our community, helping to promote awareness and early detection. â€‹To date, we have given away more than $315,000.

Team Blue Iowa Annual Events

Backpack Program

Team Blue Iowa, in partnership with The Urology Center of Iowa, have raised funds to give newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients comfort backpacks filled with items that have been suggested by former patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals. The backpacks contain items to occupy their mind and help them throughout treatment, whether that is surgery or radiation (books, blankets, puzzles, etc.) and other comfort items. They also contain critical information about their treatment regimen and ways to help in their recovery (information about treatment, physical therapy, incontinence garments, etc.)
If you are currently receiving prostate cancer treatments or know someone who is,
we'd love to connect with you and get a comfort backpack in your hands.
