"Get into your shoes and spread the word " a simple test can save your life, visit your doctor!! Its my great privilege to say Yes I Joined ! Representative from Rotaract Club of Pokhara GMC(Gandaki Medical College) , I feel proud to be volunteer coordinator of Gandaki Medical college . Nepal Breast Cancer Foundation Organized a program on this Saturday (October 28) Program was inaugurated with rally starting at Sabhagriha Hall at 7AM with marching towards Chipledhunga, Mahendrapul, Nayabazar and back to Sabhagriha and was followed by ?Zumba? of around 30 minutes and ended with appreciation of the helping hands. For the purpose of sharing information and promoting awareness of breast cancer to women, October has been a month designated to Breast Cancer Awareness As Breast Cancer Awareness Month is being celebrated all over the world to raise awareness about breast cancer and its health effects there has been an increase in the number of breast cancer patients in the country. In 1985, the first Breast Cancer Awareness Month (BCAM) was observed in the United States. With the founding of The Breast Cancer Research Foundation in 1993, the pink ribbon, which had previously been used to symbolize breast cancer, was chosen as the symbol for breast cancer awareness.Pink ribbon is the international symbol for breast cancer awareness . I am very much thankful to the program coordinator Dr.Sujata Hirachan and President of Rotaract Club of Pokhara GMC Dr.Ram Adhikari for such a golden opportunity.

Wonderful work Prakriti! For the last 6 years i have myself been spreading awareness about early detection of breast cancer. People are also an integral part of the environment and their health and well being is also important.

Hi, Prakriti! Great work! It's awesome that you took part in this breast cancer awareness program. Since breast cancer is a fairly common life-threatening disease, being aware of the symptoms and knowing the importance of regular check-ups is most important. This means that awareness is crucial, and you sure did a great job in making this known. :) Keep up the good work!
