We are raising £20,000 for a health/medical cause
Imagine a world where every woman, regardless of her race or geography, has an equal chance to survive breast cancer. This is the vision behind "Shades of Survival," a groundbreaking documentary that brings to light the stark disparities in breast cancer care for Black women across the globe. This film is more than just a documentary; it is a rallying cry for health equity and justice.
"Shades of Survival" showcases the resilience and courage of Black women from Africa, the United States, and Europe as they confront the triple burden of breast cancer: the disease itself, the stigma that often accompanies it, and the higher mortality rates they face. The film's anchor, Victoria Ekanoye, a breast cancer survivor herself, takes us on an emotional journey, sharing deeply personal stories and expert insights that highlight the urgent need for change.
Your support can make a monumental difference. This film was self-funded and made from blood, sweat and tears. There is no powerful corporation behind it. The film makers are charging and making nothing from the screenings. Every penny will go to direct costs like securing a venue, getting the word out, supporting screenings with health checks, and making sure community groups can access the vital insights and inspiration in the film. By sponsoring screenings of "Shades of Survival," you are not just funding a film; you are fueling a movement. Your contribution will help raise awareness, drive grassroots engagement, and ultimately, save lives. Imagine the impact of your donation as it brings this powerful film to communities that need it most, sparking conversations and actions that can close the health gap for Black women.
You have the power to be a hero today. Your generosity can amplify the voices of those who have been silenced for too long and ensure that every woman has a fighting chance against breast cancer. Join us in this vital cause and help us turn the tide towards health equity. Donate today and be the change you want to see in the world.
