October is Breast
Cancer Awareness Month, an annual campaign to increase awareness of the
disease. While most people are aware of breast cancer, many forget to take the
steps to have a plan to detect the disease in its early stages and encourage
others to do the same. Pink Pearl Foundation continues to instil the knowledge
of cervical and breast cancer amongst Nigerian women. Continue...
Established in
October 2007, Pink Pearl Foundation, an organization dedicated to empowering
women through skill acquisition programmes, awareness campaigns, provision of
high-quality breast and cervical cancer screenings, and diagnostic services is
promoting breast cancer awareness with a one-day bicycle ride “Pink Ride Lagos”.
With the support of
the First Lady of Lagos State, Mrs. Abimbola Fashola, Pink Pearl Foundation
will facilitate the Pink Ride involving two hundred (200) professional and
non-professional riders who will ride from the Lagos State House of Assembly in
Alausa, Ikeja to the Lagos House, Marina.
The ride which will
be flagged off by the First Lady of Lagos State will feature roadside
awareness, distribution of breast cancer fliers and on-the-go screening at two
locations in Lekki and Ikeja.
Interested members
of the public can participate by supporting with a token fee of Five Thousand
Naira – N5, 000 (Complimentary branded kit – jerseys; accredited certificate,
and more).
Participants must
be eligible (18years and above), own a bicycle and helmet.
For registration,
participation and other inquiries; call +234
709 873 2399 or send an email to pinkpearlfoundation@gmail.com.

ReplyDeleteWell done madam..keep it up
ReplyDeletePink Pearl Foundation that Orede Uduaghan is using to fleece Nigerians. What exactly is she using cancer money to research or awareness and yet her own aunt died of cancer. Shameful
ReplyDeleteShe is Jesus that will cure her aunt! Ever wondered if the aunt didn't come out don't youu think because she died is the more reason she is raising awareness for cancer! Running mouths without reasoning! Orode is now a Miracle worker to cure her aunt!
DeleteToken fee indeed.....so Orede can continue her over luxurious lifestyle based on corruption, just like her father in Parkview Estates
ReplyDeleteGbam. And nobody do born again pass the babe. Soo damn annoying
DeleteIf you can't afford it keep quiet! Her name is Orode by the way.... Linda your readers sha!

(Life and times of the human UNSTATISFIED Race) plus she just know how to respect herself no mean say she dey form born again!

You Can't Judge a Book by its Cover nor a Charity by its Name
