Buddy Check 9
On the 9th of every month, we ask women to do a monthly breast self-exam and then call their “buddy” to remind her to do the same. Their buddy can be a family member, colleague or friend. Hundreds of women have found lumps; the majority of them are not malignant. Our hope is that cancer is discovered in its early stages, when it is most treatable.
