women walking for breast cancer awareness

It’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month! To show our support, we believe everyone should know of the upcoming charity events. Over the last 21 years, more than $400 million has been raised from breast cancer walks and nearly 7 million participants have walked in the 3 to 5 mile events.Breast cancer is a tragic disease that affects millions of women in the US. There is no cure, so the money is used for research in the attempt to find one. These events aren’t only designed to raise money for charity, but they are a way to bring awareness to the disease and educate people about it. Both women and men are encouraged to become a part of this events to learn the risks and ways to prevent their chances of developing the disease.Our trusted team of Las Vegas radiology experts believe that attending these events is crucial to getting properly informed.
