Walking for HER (Hope • Early Detection • Recover)
During October
1. Inspire young people at schools to be aware of breast cancer: The
primary aim of the "Walking for HER" initiative during Breast Cancer
Awareness Month in October is to educate and inspire young
individuals in schools and communities . By spreading awareness about breast cancer
among the youth, we aim to instillknowledge and a sense of
responsibility for their health and the well-being of their loved ones.
2. Foster a culture of early detection and hope for those diagnosed with
breast cancer: Breast cancer, when detected early, has significantly
higher survival rates. Our second aim is to encourage a culture of early
detection among communities. By doing so, we aspire to bring hope to
those who are diagnosed with breast cancer, emphasizing that timely
diagnosis and treatment can lead to positive outcomes.
Walking4HER objective is to Convene dialogues on breast cancer awareness and the challenges
faced by those diagnosed with it:We recognize that open conversations
are essential in breaking down the barriers surrounding breast cancer.
To achieve this,
"Walking for HER" will organize dialogues and workshops
that provide a platform for discussing breast cancer awareness,
prevention, and the emotional and practical challenges faced by those
affected. These dialogues aim to create a supportive network and
empower individuals to take charge of their health.
2. Fundraise for the Brian Baloyi Family Foundation’s initiatives: The
financial aspect of this initiative is vital for driving meaningful change.
We intend to organise fundraising events and activities during the walk
to generate resources that will support the broader initiatives of the
Brian Baloyi Family Foundation. These resources will be used to provide
assistance to individuals affected by breast cancer and to continue our
work in uplifting underserved communities.
