Between Friends,Yes to Mammograms Join Our Showcase

Between Friends, a program of the Canadian Cancer Society, and Yes to Mammograms, is a nonprofit organization in Brevard, Florida, are now being featured as Showcase Programs.

Between Friends is a animated production about friends encouraging friends to get mammograms. It includes an illustration showing  the size of a cancer when it is self discovered, discovered by a health professional, discovered in a first mammogram, and found in a routine screening in a woman who gets mammograms on a regular basis. Once viewed, no one can have any doubt about the benefit of routine mammograms.

When viewing this showcase presentation it is important to keep in mind that mammogram scheduling may differ from country to country.

Between Friends is part of a early breast cancer detection program of the Canadian Cancer Society called, “Thing a ma boob”. The Canadian Cancer Society is  a national, community-based organization of volunteers, whose mission is the eradication of cancer and the enhancement of the quality of life of people living with cancer throughout Canada.

Yes to Mammograms was a feature post on this site on March 4th of this year. Amy Young, a 3x cancer survivor, founded Yes to Mammograms to give women the chance she had to beat cancer…early intervention through medical screenings. her organization provides free mammograms and free transport to and from the screening site for low income, uninsured women.
