PinkWalk

Countdown to Start

PinkWalk is a breast cancer awareness and fundraising initiative orchestrated by Cotiviti Nepal's CSR team, in collaboration with Cancer Care Nepal. This event serves a dual purpose by raising awareness about breast cancer while also generating funds to support the cause.

The donations received will be channeled towards Cancer Care Nepal. Cancer Care Nepal will leverage these contributions to provide essential breast cancer treatment services to individuals facing economic hardships, ensuring that they receive the care and support they urgently need.

Objective

The objective of a PinkWalk for breast cancer awareness is to raise awareness about breast cancer, promote early detection, support individuals affected by the disease, and raise funds for research, treatment, and support services. Specifically, the objectives of a Walkathon for breast cancer awareness include:

  1. Raise Awareness: The Walkathon aims to educate the community about breast cancer, its signs and symptoms, risk factors, and the importance of early detection through regular screenings and self-examinations. By increasing awareness, the event seeks to empower individuals to take proactive measures for their breast health.
  2. Promote Early Detection and Screening: The Walkathon emphasizes the importance of early detection and regular breast cancer screenings, such as mammograms. It aims to motivate individuals to schedule screenings, educate them about available resources and support services, and encourage proactive healthcare practices for breast cancer prevention and detection.
  3. Community Engagement and Support: The Walkathon encourages community participation, fostering a sense of unity and solidarity among participants. It provides an opportunity for individuals, families, friends, and local organizations to come together, show support, and actively contribute to the cause. The event promotes community engagement and collaboration to combat breast cancer collectively.
  4. Support life after cancer: By organizing a Walkathon for breast cancer awareness, the event seeks to make a significant impact in raising awareness, promoting early detection, supporting those affected by breast cancer, and generating funds for vital research and services.
