‘October’ is the month that is recognized as Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This awareness is brought to support the survivors and their families, raise awareness about breast cancer, and also the central part is to promote early detection, primitive measures, and also the treatment. You need to find one or way to convince the public about the requirement of breast cancer awareness. Join hands and support the initiatives and causes.
Wear a ribbon
If you are very busy with your life and have no time to attend these activities, you can at least wear a badge or a ribbon that doesn’t even take energy, time, or money. It is a small helpful gesture where the badge or the ribbon carries power.
Get screened!
You must practice yourself for screening for that day or during the whole week. It is proved that mammograms are the best way to detect breast cancer when it’s still in the beginning stage. Thus, we can save lives as well.
Talk about it with your friends and family.
This is important. Before advising the public, it’s better to begin the campaign with your known ones. If the people around us get educated by this awareness, then it would help spread it across with their help.
Through education, raise awareness.
Everyone needs to know about breast cancer, and they should be aware of it. Through education, it would be a great medium to learn about them, and it will help them prevent as well by taking preventive measures.
Volunteer
Volunteering is an option for people who wants to help but don’t have the skill which will help in counseling the survivors. They can join many organizations and help them with their works. Being a volunteer means you can work various jobs and help in different ways.
Purchase goods from participating companies
Some companies participate in campaigning awareness programs and also raise funds for breast cancer research and support. So purchase from them for the development of that company so that it donate more.
Share your skills
If you have good communication skills, it would help breast cancer survivors and cope with moving forward. Skills like counseling, leadership skills, inspiring, teaching class of interest would be very beneficial.
Walk towards awareness
Localites will conduct many walks to raise breast cancer awareness and money towards support, research, and advocacy.
