Fifty people gathered at Etti Amman Kovil in Vinayaganallur for a conversation that could help save lives.
Not because they were ill.
Because understanding the warning signs of cancer is the first step towards preventing it.
As part of Project Sunkalp, C. S. Shanthi conducted a Cancer Awareness Talk that encouraged participants to recognize early symptoms and seek timely screening.
The session covered four important topics:
• iBreastExam – a quick, radiation-free breast screening that helps identify abnormalities early.
• Pap Smear – a simple screening test that can detect cervical changes before they become cancer.
• Oral Examination – because a mouth ulcer, persistent sore, or white or red patch that doesn't heal should never be ignored.
• Skin Cancer Awareness – learning to recognize changes in moles or unusual skin patches that may need medical attention.
Cancer often develops silently, without pain or obvious symptoms.
That is why awareness is so powerful. Knowing what to look for and getting screened at the right time can make treatment more effective and save lives.
Every awareness session we conduct brings life-saving information closer to the community, empowering individuals to protect not only themselves but also their families.
Share this message. One conversation about early detection could make a lifetime of difference.
