October being the month dedicated for raising awareness about breast cancer, is named "pink October". Breast cancer is the 1st cancer among women with a very high prevalence rate. Many women still die out of ignorance and lack of information. Dr Tumasang Swiri Foundation is planning a walk for life which will help educate the population of Yaoundé about the risk factors, breast self examination and insist on early screening. A total of 200 people are awaited to take part in this walk. Activities will include: Walk, distribution of flyers, workouts, educative talks and free breast cancer screening.

We hope that through this walk we will touch over 2500 people and insist on routine checks.
