In an inspiring effort to combat cancer, Rotary Club Makati, in collaboration with the Philippine Cancer Society, is making a significant impact through their cancer screening initiative. With screenings held in various locations, including Marikina, Teresa (Rizal), and Brgy. Potrero Malabon, Rotary Club Makati ensures that underserved communities have access to essential healthcare services.
By leveraging a mobile screening facility provided by the Philippine Cancer Society, Rotary Club brings life-saving screenings to communities with limited healthcare access. This collaborative approach exemplifies thepower of partnerships in addressing pressing healthcare needs.
One notable collaboration within this initiative is with PolyHealth Diagnostic and Laboratory Inc., a trusted partner in Brgy Potrero Malabon. PolyHealth Diagnostic and Laboratory Inc. has played a vital role in raising cervical and breast cancer awareness among mothers in the community. By providing their expertise and resources, they empower women with knowledge about early detection and prevention, making a lasting impact on their lives.
Through strategic scheduling, the initiative maximizes its reach by conducting screenings once in March and three times in May. This ensures that diverse communities receive vital cancer screenings, prioritizing early detection and prevention.
The success of Rotary Club's cancer screening initiative, bolstered by the collaboration with the Philippine Cancer Society and the dedicated efforts of PolyHealth Diagnostic and Laboratory Inc., highlights the importance of accessible screenings and raising awareness about cancer. Looking ahead, Rotary Club is determined to expand the initiative, reaching even more individuals in need of life-saving screenings.
In a world where cancer remains a significant health challenge, Rotary Club's dedication, in partnership with the Philippine Cancer Society and PolyHealth Diagnostic and Laboratory Inc., to improving healthcare access through cancer screenings is truly commendable. By working hand in hand with their partners, Rotary Club is saving lives and inspiring hope for a brighter and healthier future.
