SOCIAL SOLIDARITY - AWARENESS CAMPAIGN OCTOBER 2023 #BREAKING THE STIGMA
The Bookstand Charity Social Solidarity awareness campaign aims to break the social stigma associated with breast cancer. Social stigma largely contributes to fear and delays in seeking treatment and attending regular screening which ultimately contributes to late presentation and an increase in fatality cases. Much appreciation to - Muthoni Mate of Cancer Cafe; Ekta Bid, Diana Ogendi of Lady Luck Shapewear, Wandia Gichuru CEO Vivo Active Wear, the University of Nairobi, Kabarak university and all associate partners supporting the cause.
