Together Against Breast Cancer!



October is the worldwide month of breast cancer awareness.
  Promod (Lebanon) and Hayatouki are joining efforts to raise awareness for the cause of breast cancer by launching a nationwide campaign throughout all the Promod stores (Beirut Souks, Kaslik, Le Mall Dbayeh, Le Mall Saida, Le Mall Sin El Fil & Tripoli): Pink ribbons are being distributed to all customers in order to promote yearly prevention tests and show support towards breast cancer patients.
You can participate in the contest and support the cause by following the steps in the Ad above (the picture upload is on Hayatouki's facebook page)

In fact, all women are at risk for breast cancer, and as a woman gets older, her risk increases. 
In Lebanon, researchers estimate around 1750 women diagnosed every year with breast cancer and 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with invasive breast cancer at some time in their lives.
 
Fortunately, early prevention is the first solution towards a healing process.
That is why we encourage every woman above 35 years to undergo a yearly mammography and a scan in addition to a personal monthly checkup done at home in order to ensure her best safety.
