Brief Description

Conducted annually, the breast cancer awareness campaign was held in the main lobby by all programs at BMC. The primary objective of the campaign was to raise awareness about breast cancer and emphasize the significance of early detection. To achieve this, students from all programs planned various activities, illustrations, digital and printed content presented in their booths. Through the booths, there were informative sessions dedicated to explaining the procedure and benefits of mammograms, symptoms of breast cancer, its risk factors, and explanation of home checkup. As many individuals may have questions or concerns regarding mammograms, these sessions aimed to address any queries and alleviate any anxieties associated with this essential screening tool
