Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the second-ranking cause of death in women. Some of the cancers that most often affect women are breast, colorectal, endometrial, lung, cervical, skin, and ovarian cancers. Early detection has been proven to improve outcomes in the occurrence of cancer when treated at the early stages. The health mission was designed to commence in the month of October which is marked globally as breast cancer awareness month.
