BlackWomenStandUp.com's Gynecological and Breast Cancer Awareness Initiative
April 10, 2017
Stand with us as we work to save lives and celebrate survivors by encouraging women to #CheckUpOnIt and stay on top of their health to remain cancer free.
"Love Your Va-Jay-Jay Day" is an online social media campaign, and a live event where we honor a Uterine and Breast Cancer Survivor with our "Still Standing" Award each year.
How can you help? We are now accepting donations to help make the event a success. If you have a product that you would like to donate for inclusion into our gift bags, please visit our Contact Us Page, located top right.
April is also National Minority Health Month. Black women and women of color are being affected by breast and GYN cancers at alarming rates, not to mention we rarely hear about the five types of GYN Cancers, which are Cervical, Uterine, Ovarian, Vulvar and Vagina. Ladies, spread the word, and make sure you don't forget to #CheckUpOnIt
Ways to #CheckUpOnIt :
Schedule that GYN appointment
Perform a self-breast exam
Talk with your family about your medical history as it relates to cancer
Get informed about statistics, tips, prevention an early detection strategies
You’re quite welcome:)
Just FYI this my writing from my blog. I understand you are reblogging a reblog. But that first “reblog” did not include where that post originated from. Which was me, my heart, my mind, my soul: my blog. Thought you should know.
