A total of 300 women were screened and a number were referred to a medical facility for further checks.
The Country Manager for Treepz Ghana, Isidore Kpotufe said the company is committed to supporting such events as they help to save lives: “It is our collective responsibility to support the fight against breast cancer. We at Treepz Ghana are very proud to join the campaign and remain committed to champion this cause”.
Tracy Owusu Addo, founder and brainchild of Project Brave at the end of the campaign noted that:
“Treepz Ghana partnered with us on our Breast Cancer awareness creation for the month of October which enabled us travel to Ada for the breast cancer screening. Great Service and Support from the team. We are happy with the outcome of the partnership and we hope to work on more projects together.”
Breast Cancer Awareness Month was established in October 1985 to encourage women to get regular mammograms. It now also aims to teach the importance of breast cancer research, as well as how to support survivors and those going through treatment and honor those who lost their lives to the disease.
