Epic Vintage Car and Bike Rally for Cancer Awareness
Objectives of RACE
- RACE primarily aims to raise awareness among the general public and sensitize the world to the benefits of early detection, which are crucial in cancer treatment. Being aware of cancer can also motivate individuals to follow a healthier lifestyle.
- So spread cancer awareness and break the stigma and fear associated with it. About 30% of case can effectively be prevented through lifestyle changes (or the avoidance of risk factors) — as such, educate individuals about the main risk factors.
- And educate people about the necessity of regular screenings and check-ups.
- Educate about mammograms, clinical breast exams, and breast self-exams.
- Also educate them on a much better and more trustworthy cervical cancer test, the HPV test.
