Breast Cancer Awareness activities
For Breast Cancer Awareness Month (but also throughout the year!), we at Destination Jeddah like to emphasize the importance of early breast cancer detection to our readers. There are many different ways you can learn more about it while supporting breast cancer patients and survivors in city. Here are some of them.
Get checked!
- The International Medical Center (IMC) is helping out with early breast cancer detection: from Oct. 23-25, they’re offering free check-ups.
