"We're seeing better everyday function and overall higher quality of life for cancer survivors who exercise," Kathryn Schmitz, Ph.D., American College of Sports Medicine. Cancer Fitness Institute HistoryThe Cancer Fitness Institute, formerly known as Summit Cancer Solutions, is an organization that provided exercise programs directly to cancer survivors for over twelve years and helped over 1,400 cancer survivors. The mission of the Cancer Fitness Institute is to develop, provide, and support opportunities for quality cancer-specific exercise programs to patients and survivors in a healthy and positive environment. In January 2011, we changed our focus from working directly with cancer survivors to providing training on our cancer exercise program to qualified fitness professionals. This transition enabled the Cancer Fitness Institute to broaden its impact by creating a small army of cancer-trained exercise professionals. Cancer survivors across Colorado, and beyond, will have access to exercise programs tailored to their needs in their communities! Recreation centers and other facilities across Colorado and Minnesota now offer our trademarked CancerFit® program to cancer survivors.Supporting OrganizationsWe extend our deepest thanks to these organizations that have generously supported our program: Supporting Organizations: We are also grateful to the many individuals who make donations and keep our program serving others!
