Archived Event: Many thanks to Univar Solutions for their outstanding efforts to raise awareness — and funds— for prostate cancer research and education!
Univar Solutions, a Downers Grove-based industry leader, championed the mission of Prostate Cancer Foundation of Chicago by hosting its sold-out Univar Inaugural Charity Golf Outing, on June 27, 2019 at Lake Geneva, WI.
Univar Solutions is a leading global distributor of chemicals and ingredients.
According to David C. Jukes, Univar President and CEO:
Unfortunately prostate cancer is the second most commonly occurring cancer in men and the fourth most commonly occurring cancer overall. In America alone, this equates to about 1 man in 9 being diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime.
Fortunate for us we have great organizations around the world dedicated to finding new and better prevention, detection and treatment options for this disease. One such organization is the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Chicago, which is focused on improving the quality of care and the quality of life through patient support programs, clinical research and furthering education for this important topic.
PCFC is most grateful for the passion that Mr. Jukes and all of Univar continues to share in order to help men know their options for prostate cancer treatment informed by outcomes-based research, such as PCFC studies!
