Stand Up To Cancer Naija is a leading youth based cancer advocacy group. It is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing essential medical information for people affected by or concerned about breast cancer. Stand Up To Cancer Naija helps individuals and families understand, interpret and act upon the most reliable and recent breast cancer information – including all of the latest research-- so they can make the best decisions for their lives.
Excitement is in the air as Stand Up To Cancer Naija Partners with Silverbird Group to organize a FREE BREAST CANCER SCREENING at Silverbird Galleria Lagos, on the 29th of October 2011. This event will be a step in the right direction in the area of reducing the burden of breast cancer in Nigeria. Unfortunately, we all have a family member or friend’s family that has battled Breast Cancer so there is a continual need for sources like Stand Up To Cancer Naija.
This Screening is absolutely free, you can also support the cause.

I'm glad to see such steps being taken in the country! The level of awareness of this and other types of cancers needs to increase. It is important to emphasize that breast cancer also affects MEN so we all need to form the self-exam habit.
As a Nigerian undergoing breast cancer treatment in UK, I often wonder if the average breast cancer patient in Nigeria has access to a fraction of the facilities I have enjoyed here. Sadly, we all know the answer to that question!
Your blog didn't indicate how support can given to the SUTCN group. Perhaps a link could be included for those of us who would be happy to support their efforts. Thanks.
