My story

We strongly believe free preventative healthcare is a basic human right, but we need your support.  A £16 donation can make a real difference.
In developing countries, breast and cervical cancer is rapidly becoming the leading cause of cancer-related deaths.  Worldwide, it is estimated that 85% of cervical cancer cases (and 88% of deaths) occur in developing countries.  In addition 60% of breast cancer deaths are in developing countries.  It’s no coincidence that access to diagnosis and treatment is practically non-existent in these areas.
Our goal is clear: to reduce these shocking mortality rates and the associated suffering of the affected women, their families and communities, by ensuring earlier stage detection through effective screening programmes and awareness.  We hope to screen at least 100,000 women by the end of 2015.
For each £16 donation, The Odysseus Foundation will provide a complete breast and cervical cancer exam to a woman in a developing country or socially-excluded community. This will include a pap smear, pelvic examination, clinical breast examination, and mammogram, and the teaching of breast self-examination (BSE) advocating future empowerment.  The Odysseus Foundation is the first and only UK charity to address the prevention and detection of breast and cervical cancer overseas.
