This October, celebrate the annual Breast Cancer Awareness Month (BCAM) by forming a sea of pink at Pink Ribbon Walk! This is the official launch of BCAM as well as Singapore’s largest event dedicated to raising awareness about the condition, showing support for those affected by the condition, as well as reinforcing the importance of a healthy lifestyle! Join Breast Cancer Foundation (BCF) for this signature event on Saturday, 6 October 2018, from 4pm to 8pm, and demonstrate solidarity with those affected by breast cancer! Put on your sports shoes for either a 3.5km Walk or 5km Fun Run at the event!

Before the walk, groove and move for breast health and be part of a record-setting dance that will see the most number of people in Singapore to wear a pink cap and participate in the largest dance to raise breast cancer awareness.

Breast cancer remains the most common form of cancer amongst women in Singapore whereit is estimated that 1 in 14 women, before the age of 75, will develop this condition in their lifetime. Standing together to fight against the condition shows your support not just for current warriors, but also for all women who are taking steps in early detection against breast cancer. Men should participate too, to show solidarity for the women in their lives.

Registration is now open, and more information is available at Pink Ribbon Walk website.
