TARGET AUDIENCE We want to capture the attention of women mainly because women are more likely to get breast cancer than men. Men are possible, but rare to get breast cancer. The group range is of 18 -30 year old people. Everyone should be aware, no matter what age. A woman’s risk of developing this disease increases as she gets older. v Women who have their menstrual cycle before age 12 or went through menopause late after age 55 have an increased risk for breast cancer as well. v Anyone who has family history of breast cancer v having a first full-term pregnancy after age 30 v never having been pregnant v having dense breasts v obesity after menopause v alcohol use.

GOALS OF CAMPAIGN v Our main goal is to help reach out and inform those who are in need for help. We also want to spread the awareness of Breast Cancer. Early detection = Early diagnoses = Early Prognosis Help younger women be better updated about themselves. Increase the percentage of women getting regular checkups which will decrease the percentage of women who are diagnose with breast cancer. v Also, we hope to cut down future medical costs by catching and treating symptoms early. We can save more lives by early detection of breast cancer.

DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING SITUATION Kayla’s Mother’s Personal Experience: My mother’s first breast cancer screening

DESCRIPTION OF EXISTING SITUATION Kayla’s Mother’s Personal Experience: My mother’s first breast cancer screening was at age 40. It was then that she found out she had a mass in her left breast. The doctor took a biopsy of the mass and sent it off to the lab for testing. A few days later, my mother got a phone call that would change her life. The doctor told her the mass was cancerous. My mother could not believe it but never let my sister and me know how serious it was. She had to have a lumpectomy which is the surgical removal of a breast cyst or tumor. After the surgery, she had to go through 6 weeks of radiation and she took medication called Tamoxifen for 5 years. Some women have to have chemotherapy, but my mother did not. Because of her early detection, her breast cancer had not spread. My mother is a breast cancer survivor going on 9 years.
