Dear HOPE Supporter,
We are excited to announce that the first stage of our cervical cancer project, the initial training of our doctors and staff on how to screen for breast cancer and cervical cancer using the VIA (visual inspecition with acetic acid) method wil take place this November in 2015. Our wonderful partner, Prevention International will be traveling to our hospital in Cox's Bazar to provide unprecendented training to our team. To date, there are no other cervical cancer programs like this in the area. Not only will women finally be provided this essential care, but impoverished women specifically will be provided this care. HOPE aims to reach as many women as possible in this area to prevent cervical cancer when its in its early stages and can be sucessfully treated.
We still need to reach our goal in order to be able to implement this project on a large scale and implement an outreach program to raise awareness and notify patients of what is available to them. We hope you continue to support this critical project and please feel free to share with your friends! We sincerely thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
Ashley Pugh
