The Kurdish Red Crescent concluded a month filled with activities and awareness campaigns on early breast cancer detection. These included a variety of events such as: a sports marathon in collaboration with the Body Bicycle team and the Hez organization; awareness lectures in coordination with the Health Authority and the Women’s Foundation in Hasakah, Qamishli, and Derik; and sessions held at all Red Crescent points and communes in North and East Syria.
The Kurdish Red Crescent’s oncology hospital played a major role in receiving a large number of women for early screening, reflecting the community’s confidence in the efforts being made.
During the month, healthcare staff were honored in recognition of their dedication and commitment to raising awareness and encouraging women to get screened.
Despite the conclusion of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, work continues throughout the year at the oncology hospital, which has provided treatment to 210 women with breast cancer to date—because hope never ends, and the giving continues.
