The name of the event is “Put the Glam in Mammogram.” It is an event for individuals without health insurance to get screened for breast cancer with a mammogram, for free. Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women and one in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer. The best way to reduce risk from dying from this disease is to get screened regularly with a mammogram. By getting screened, breast cancer can be caught early when treatment may be more effective.
