Blooming Buds School, the renowned educational institution of Moga city, under the able leadership of group chairman Dr. Sanjeev Kumar Saini and Chairperson Mrs. Kamal Saini, students and staff of the school were sensitized about women’s cancer under the ‘Swasth Mahila Swasth Bharat’ campaign. The team from Yuvraj Singh Foundation ‘YouWeCan’ in which Dr. Kirandeep Kaur (Regional Manager), Dr. Ayushi and Mehak (Cluster Coordinators) were involved, said that today in India, a woman dies every 6 minutes due to breast cancer, which is an alarming thing in view of women’s health and safety. One of the major reasons for this is breast cancer not being diagnosed at an early stage. If breast cancer is detected at an early stage, then its treatment is possible, In the fight against ‘breast cancer’  the campaign ‘Swasth Mahila, Swasth Bharat’ is launched by former cricketer Yuvraj Singh’s organization ‘YouWeCan’.

She explained in detail about self breast examination to the women how they can check themselves every month whether they have any symptoms of breast cancer or not.

Even such a deadly disease can be defeated, so there is no need to fear cancer. On this occasion, screening of the female staff of the school was also done.
