Cerritos-based First Choice Bank Joins as a Sponsor for the Cancer Journeys Foundation’s 2018 Tour de USA® for Prostate Cancer World Record Attempt

August 25, 2018 - PRESSADVANTAGE -

Manhattan Beach, California (Press Advantage) August 25, 2018: Manhattan Beach-based Cancer Journeys Foundation today announced that Cerritos, California-based First Choice Bank -based Sundaram Applied Technologies has joined as a sponsor for the inaugural 2018 Tour de USA® for Prostate Cancer. The event is a World Record attempt for the longest charity road rally. The rally begins on August 26, 2018 and ends back in Los Angeles on September 13th after traveling through 9 western states and driving 6,127 miles in 23 days, right in the middle of National Prostate Cancer Awareness Month.

Manhattan Beach resident and Cancer Journeys Foundation President Robert Hess created the Tour de USA® road rally as a way to dramatically reduce America’s annual prostate cancer death toll and highlight the support needs of America’s 15+ million cancer survivors.

Said Hess, “Prostate cancer claims the lives of almost 28,000 American men every year because these men don’t know they have the disease in time for effective treatment. The mission of the 2018 Tour de USA® is to make certain men know about the prostate cancer risk (one in seven men will have the disease) and about the Foundation’s simple prostate cancer risk awareness tool, ProstateTracker.Org.”

The Tour de USA® begins on August 26, 2018 and ends back in Los Angeles, after 23 days and 6,127 miles on the road. “We’ll be carrying a GPS tracker so people all across the US will be able to follow us in real time on the Internet and join us on the road as we come through their state. Event details are available on the Tour de USA® website at https://TourdeUSA.Events,” according to Hess.

“We’re especially excited to have First Choice Bank as a Sponsor,” said Hess. “Community banks like First Choice have a clear focus on helping their communities grow and prosper. Supporting our prostate cancer awareness mission says a lot about how much the bank cares about their community.”
