The Cancer Project

The Cancer Project aims to address cancer awareness and support in the community through multiple initiatives. The first initiative, Sensitization, involves creating awareness both physically, through community-level engagement, and virtually, via social media campaigns with Vox Pop, short videos, memes, and e-fliers. The goal is to increase awareness of cancer and its effects, involving volunteers and healthcare workers.

The Cancer Support Program creates a community where cancer patients can encourage one another. It plans to run health checks for 250 women quarterly, providing a support network for those affected.

Medication Support focuses on fundraising to provide low-cost or free medications for women diagnosed with cancer. Similarly, Treatment Support seeks to raise funds to support cancer treatment for patients in need. The project's approach emphasizes building a network of volunteers and healthcare professionals to drive awareness and support efforts. With a combination of sensitization, support programs, and fundraising, the project aims to provide holistic assistance to cancer patients in the community.
