Pink and Teal EmpowHer (Persatuan Kesedaran Kanser Wanita)
As a Sarawakian woman, it frustrates me that the rural Sarawakian women are constantly left out of equitable breast and cervical cancer screening and constantly present at late, inoperable stages of these cancers. Cervical cancer can be prevented and EVEN eliminated, while early detection of breast cancer SAVES lives. Join me as I raise funds for equitable breast and cervical cancer screening for the Rural Sarawakian Women. All proceeds go to providing free breast and cervical cancer screening to rural Sarawakian Women

Pink and Teal EmpowHer (Persatuan Kesedaran Kanser Wanita)
2020 has hit us hard. Due to the world wide lockdown, we have not been able to raise the fund necessary to maintain our operation. However, we have not stopped screening and have sent HPV self-sampling kits into the rural areas of Sarawak, namely Long Lamai, Long Banga and Long Sait of Ulu Baram. We are currently working with Health Clinic Beladin to extend HPV cervical cancer screening to the women of surrounding areas.Help us raise fund to bring easily accessible HPV self-sampling to Sarawakian Women.This deadly cancer is >90% preventable by vaccination and screening however, only 20-30% of Sarawakian women get screened.The self-sampling HPV kit has been proven to remove obstacles and barrier to cervical cancer screening. Please help us reach out to rural women.
