Awareness drive on breast cancer

October is marked as the breast cancer awareness month globally and Shaukat Khanum Memorial Trust (SKMT) will launch a campaign on national and international levels to educate people about the importance of early detection of breast cancer. This year, the Shaukat Khanum Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign will be launched on October 1 with the illumination of some landmark buildings in pink for three days including the President House, the Parliament House, the Prime Minister’s Secretariat, and the Cabinet Division. The illuminated buildings will be symbols of hope and a reminder to the public that prevention may not be in our hands but early detection is.
