Breast Cancer Awareness Day Party

Welcome to the Breast Cancer Awareness Day Party!

Breast Cancer Awareness Month, held in October every year, aims to promote screening and prevention of the disease, affecting one in eight women in the United States annually and 2.3 million women worldwide.

Breast Cancer hits differently in African American communities, so The New Stanley's Lounge is hosting a Breast Cancer Awareness Day Party to tribute survivors and shed light on the importance of mammograms.

There will be a pink champagne survivor toast, and a special gift will be presented to the longest breast cancer survivor. There will also be free food, a DJ, drink specials, and lots of prizes and giveaways.

Breast cancer is the second-leading cause of cancer deaths among American men and women. For Black women, the incidence rate has increased in the last 40 years.

While Black women are less likely to be diagnosed with breast cancer, they are more likely to die from breast cancer than white women, according to Johns Hopkins Medical School researchers.

Black women are also more likely to be diagnosed with more aggressive types of breast cancer, researchers say, in part due to a combination of biological, social, and economic factors, including stress. These types of cancer make treatment options more limited.

Your donation includes entry into the party, free food, prizes, and giveaways.
