Cancel Cancer Africa is a Breast Cancer awareness. Our Aim is to use various presentations to raise awareness of Cancer in Africa.

As I am sure you are aware, the Cancer burden in Africa is a very complicated issue. Many people present to the hospital with late stage disease, due to the lack of awareness about symptoms together with cultural and superstitious misconceptions.

The idea of the Cancel Cancer road show is to improve the knowledge of what signs and symptoms to look out for and to encourage women go to see a doctor if any of these occur.

Being able to afford treatment is another huge challenge in Africa, so we work in partnership with the local health authorities to develop ways to fund treatments for any women that we find who needs further investigations or treatment.

Our objective is to reduce the rate of mortality and morbidity caused by Cancer in Africa.

Our strategy is based on three key methods.
1, Awareness:
We are determined to raise the level of Breast Cancer awareness in Africa. We will continue to carry out challenging activities.

2, Responsibility:
We believe that raising the level of awareness will develop a sense of responsibility within the governments in Africa. We will continue to overcome the challenges in collaboration with the local governments.

3, Action: We believe that progressive actions are inevitable with a sense of accountability. Our passion is to encourage steps to permanent solutions.
