Cancer Message Goes to Ngoma!

Remember Ngoma - Yes. Again, this dusty village witnessed a historical event. Grassroots action against cancer. UCRF Luweero Branch members held an outreach activity to Ngoma, which is 100 km away from Luweero, on Friday on the 8th June 2012. They talked to pupils of St. Cyprian NgomaPprimary school and students of St. Luke Ngoma S.S. about cancer incidence and the need to take care of their lives. They emphasized early breast and cervical cancer testing in order for them to establish their status early enough.
 



They encouraged them to avoid taking foods which might damage their lives to the extent of acquiring some of the preventable cancers. These includes those foods that are low in fiber and very processed - also called a westernized life style.  This was a small step for UCRF, but a Giant step for Ngoma residents. Thank you for your encouragement.
