BCH Club Lake Norman Charter High School
Breast Cancer Awareness Session with Breast Cancer Hub (BCH) Club, Lake Norman Charter High School, November 14, 2024: It was wonderful meeting Ms. Michelle Wiehl (Club advisor) and so thankful for her incredible support. It was my pleasure to conduct the cancer awareness session for BCH Club officers Sanjana Gopalakrishnan, Akshara Gurudu, Viva Mittal, and Sahasra Poolugu and the BCH Club members, so that our Club members can generate awareenss within their own network, and also explaining about the upcoming club activities execution and how it will be making meaningful impact.
“After the session, we distributed BCH brochures with the QR codes to download the Breast Self Exam cards in 24 languages for Her and Him, Early detection cards for other prevalent cancers, created by BCH, and contact information so that any suspicious case can reach out to me later. A wristband and a keyring with combination colors of pink representing breast cancer in women, blue representing breast cancer in men, and purple inclusive of all genders and all cancers along with bookmarks symbolizing different ribbon colors as we fight against all types of Cancers, with the message of togetherness were also given to the community to provide awareness and education. We also discussed our BCH handcrafted essential Patient care package that contains Breast Cancer Surgery (also applicable for other cancers), heart-shaped pillow with a pocket to insert cold or hot pack providing comfort and healing, specialized Chemo port Seat Belt pillows to wear in the Car while seated, and Soft Hats for irritated scalp from chemo, beneficial for patients, along with expressive cards with creative artwork to bring smiles to the patients”.
With gratitude,
