According to the National Cancer Registry of 2004, one in 29 women is diagnosed with breast cancer.

Breast cancer is one of the top 10 cancers among women.

Breast cancer is a group of cancer cells (malignant tumor) that begins in the cells of the breast.

All people, whether male or female, are born with some breast cells and tissue that have the possibility to develop into cancer.

However, breast cancer in men is rare, with only about 2,190 diagnoses each year.

This being said, make a stride in showing your support to those who are suffering with this disease and make a difference by joining the Pink Walk.
