what is Pinktober & why special ?


Pinktober is the global breast cancer awareness month observed every October. It’s special because it’s dedicated to:
🎀 Raising Awareness:
It spreads knowledge about breast cancer, early detection, and prevention.
🎀 Encouraging Screening:
Women are encouraged to do regular breast self-exams and clinical check-ups. Early detection saves lives.
🎀 Support & Solidarity:
People worldwide wear pink ribbons, participate in events, and support those fighting breast cancer.
🎀 Fundraising for Research:
Many organizations and brands raise funds in October to support breast cancer research, treatment, and patient care.
🎀 Community Involvement:
Walkathons, marathons, awareness camps, educational talks, and social media campaigns bring communities together.
It’s called Pinktober because pink is the global color of breast cancer awareness — symbolizing hope, support, and strength.
