LPCC Illuminates Cristo Rei in Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness
The Liga Portuguesa Contra o Cancro (LPCC) is illuminating the Cristo Rei monument in Almada, Portugal, in pink from Tuesday to Thursday to raise awareness about early breast cancer diagnosis. This initiative is part of the global Pinktober campaign and the LPCC's ongoing efforts to fight breast cancer, one of the most prevalent oncological diseases among women in Portugal.
The LPCC, a leading non-profit organisation in Portugal dedicated to fighting cancer, aims to rally civil society, inform, and encourage action in the fight against breast cancer. Throughout October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the LPCC illuminates landmarks and buildings in pink across the country. These initiatives, like the Cristo Rei lighting, serve as a gesture of solidarity and hope for women battling breast cancer. The campaign encourages people to stay alert to their body's signals and to undergo regular screenings. The LPCC works closely with local authorities and international organisations to make these actions possible.
The LPCC's initiative to illuminate the Cristo Rei monument in pink is a powerful symbol of support and awareness for breast cancer. By encouraging early diagnosis and regular screenings, the organisation is helping to save lives and combat one of the most prevalent oncological diseases among women in Portugal.
