Improvements in Cancer Awareness in Uganda

Uganda just saw a fundraising event completely devoted to cancer prevention, awareness, and cure. This is refreshing because cancer deaths are a serious problem in Uganda. To put it in perspective, about 75% of cancer cases in the U.S. are cured, whereas in Uganda, cancer is a death sentence for 80% of all people who get it. Uganda also has the world’s highest death rate for children with cancer. It is great to see that there have been so much done so far to help this condition improve, from the Mulago Cancer Center to fundraising groups like Bless a Child. Please pray for this positive change to continue.
