Nick Novak's Crucial Catch

This October, the American Cancer Society and the National Football League are teaming up for the Crucial Catch Challenge. Players from across the league are taking the field to raise funds and awareness for risk reduction and early cancer detection.

You can support my Crucial Catch Challenge by pledging for every field goal that the Chargers make during the last four games in October.

WHY I’M TAKING THE CHALLENGE

We have all been affected by cancer in one way or another.

Personally, I lost a close family friend, Annie Arth, to ovarian cancer. She was an amazing mother and throughout her battle, never once complained about her daily fight.

Seeing first hand the progression of this disease with Annie changed my life.

She valiantly fought and before she passed, I made a commitment that if I am given the opportunity, I would use my platform to assist cancer research that is trying to find a cure for this awful disease.

I’m proud to announce my participation in the NFL’s Crucial Catch Challenge in support of American Cancer Society. I’m taking the field with players from across the league to raise funds for risk reduction and early cancer detection. Go to CrucialCatchChallenge.org  today to make your pledge and join my team. Together we can INTERCEPT CANCER!
