Breast Cancer Awareness Month is celebrated globally in the month of October every year and this marks a time when individuals and organizations, make concerted efforts to reach out to women with programs that promote breast cancer awareness and regular screening for early detection.

The Foundation for Cancer Care was not left out, as we collaborated with Lakeshore Cancer Center and 3 other groups to educate women about breast and cervical cancer and also improve access to screening services.

Through these programs we were able to reach about 400 women with life-saving cancer information contained in our educational fliers and breast and cervical cancer screening to about 200 women.
