Lend your support to Breast Cancer Awareness this October by shopping these unique local brands
Every October, people around the world rally to show their support for breast cancer awareness. Known to be the most common type of cancer in women, the National Cancer Centre Singapore reported that 29.4 per cent of women in Singapore contracted cancer from 2015 to 2019.
The Breast Cancer Foundation (BCF) in Singapore actively raises awareness through talks and events to support the breast cancer community in Singapore. Those affected by breast cancer are aided by BCF through psycho-social programmes, support groups and befriending activities. BCF also offers subsidies to low-income women for first-time mammogram screenings.
