The 9Health Fair impacts hundreds of thousands of lives every year and helps families from all over Colorado own their health.

But behind those numbers is a team of people working hard to make it happen from doctors, to the staff, to volunteers and the board members.

One of those members is a man who has dedicated his life to helping others.

Meet Dr. Don Parsons, this year’s Community Health Charities Hero of the year.

For our Buddy Check9 this month, we have been taking a closer look at blood cancer. It is time to meet a survivor and find out what you can do to help others survive.
