This past weekend, breast cancer survivors and supporters walked, ran and advocated for breast cancer programs for the women of the Bahamas, as more than 100 delegates join thousands of others for a weekend of breast cancer advocacy, awareness and support.
More than 100 breast cancer advocates joined Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, the world’s largest breast cancer organization, in a mission trip to the Bahamas to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer programs there. Komen partnered with The Links, Incorporated, a volunteer service organization of women committed to enriching, sustaining and ensuring the culture and economic survival of African Americans.
Mission delegates engaged with Bahamian government and health officials, breast health experts, advocates and executive leadership from Komen and The Links, including a medical roundtable and town hall meeting. The activities culminated in not one, but two, race events for breast cancer programs.
