As you are aware, October is internationally known as Breast Cancer Awareness Month. To show your support; tomorrow will be celebrated as Wear Pink to Work Day.
The Ogaan Cancer Foundation and the ELLE Breast Cancer Campaign has signed up companies to go casual for a cause. All you have to do is register and encourage your co-workers to wear pink tomorrow to express solidarity for the fight against breast cancer. It will help create awareness and hopefully boost women to go for a check-up as early detection is key to fighting this terrible disease.
Sonam Kapoor has also lent her support: “It is my privilege to be associated with the Ogaan Cancer Foundation and play a part in spreading breast cancer awareness. Everyone seems to know someone with breast cancer – I lost an aunt to it. Detecting cancer early is the only way to fight and that requires awareness about tests and a healthy lifestyle. I’m very happy to support the OCF team on this very special initiative, as they continue to show earnestness and a sense of dedicated purpose. I hope I can make a difference in my own way”.
Some of the participating companies include Network18, Hindustan Unilever Excel Entertainment Pvt Ltd, Jubilant FoodWorks Limited, Tech Mahindra and very own TeamMissMalini.
I do hope you support the cause. Just wear pink!
