This October, in recognition of #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth and #LiverCancerAwarenessMonth, our very own Chris Thickson, has taken on an incredible challenge—completing 100 push-ups a day to raise funds for Cancer Research UK (CRUK). 💪 By pushing himself physically, Chris is helping raise awareness and much-needed funds to support cancer research, a cause that touches so many lives. Let's show him our support and help make a difference together! Think you can handle the push-ups, too? Or maybe you'd prefer to sponsor Chris instead (it’s easier on the arms 😉). Donate and cheer him on here: https://lnkd.in/ezEcFrNa Every bit helps in the fight against cancer.

We're halfway through 2024, which sadly means approximately 150,000 more men have been diagnosed with prostate cancer this year. You can make a difference for these patients by giving to our limited-time matching gift fund! The Schwartz Family has stepped forward to match every donation – dollar for dollar – made to ZERO Prostate Cancer, up to $10,000. But you must act fast – this matching gift expires at midnight tomorrow. Our goal is to secure funding that will allow all patients to access help as they face their diagnoses. Give at zerocancer.org/give-now. #ZEROProstateCancer

Breast cancer awareness hits home for me in a profound way. As a 25-year-old, I watched my mother’s life be taken by breast cancer in just three short months. It was a devastating reminder of how aggressive this disease can be if not detected early. Breast cancer is highly survivable when caught in time, and that's why awareness, early detection, and regular screenings are so important. 💗 I stand with the incredible survivors, advocates, and those still fighting this battle. Let's keep spreading the word and making a difference. Regular Mammograms: Mammograms are the most effective screening tool for early detection. Women aged 40 and above, or those with higher risk factors, should follow their healthcare provider’s recommendations for regular screenings. Self-Exams: Performing monthly breast self-exams allows you to become familiar with your body. This helps you notice any unusual changes, like lumps, swelling, or shifts in size or shape, that should be reported to a doctor. Above all, advocating for yourself is crucial. If something feels off, trust your instincts and push for further evaluation. Early detection saves lives! 💗 #BreastCancerAwareness #SelfAdvocacy #EarlyDetection #HealthTips #MoreThanPink #EarlyDetectionSavesLives #InHonorOfMyMom #SusanGKomen
