The Cancer Walk and the Screening Event is a day that will be packed with lots of activities for a noble cause. On 27th October 2012, we shall conduct a Cancer Awareness Walk from the Queens of Apostles Church compound and along the Superhighway. The Walk shall start 7.00am to 11.00am. Members from the Young Professionals and the Youth of the church and members of the community are expected to participate in the walk. This shall raise funds towards eradicating the menace as well as looking forward to open a Counseling centre along the Super Highway. Interested sponsors who would like to participate in this noble cause are cordially invited.

On the following day the 28th October2012, we shall now have the Screening day. We have invited about 30 Medical Practitioners volunteering from hospitals in Nairobi who will be conducting the exercise, as well as cancer survivors in the locality who will show case their survival tactics.
