As part of the global campaign against breast cancer, Pink Pearl Foundation has said it will hold its maiden Hope session to sensitise people on breast cancer.

The programme is entitled: Pink Hope PPF.

Hope session, it said, is a breast cancer support group designed to provide psychological help to breast cancer patients and survivors.

It said the event aimed at ensuring stable psychology, well-being and therapy for patients.

Others are body aesthetics and recreation programmes.

The Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Pink Pearl Foundation, Orode Ryan Okpu, “The most significant progress we have made to reduce death rate from cancer is through early detection; this yields better long term outcomes and lower morbidity rates. Pink Pearl Foundation contributes to the reduction of suffering, permanent physical damage/ disfigurement and death caused by breast cancer as we believe that if you can save a woman, then you have saved a generation.”

Okpu said “Hope session” shows the dedication by the foundation to increase public awareness through education about symptoms, prevention and diseases processes as well as the importance of regular examination for early detection.
