October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. An estimated 1 in 8 women and 2 ,800 men will be diagnosed with Breast Cancer by the end of 2023 (National Breast Cancer Foundation, Inc.). Early detection and treatment has led to a 5 year relative survival rate of 99%, more than 3.8 million Breast Cancer survivors are in our country (National Breast Cancer Foundation, Inc.)! It is awareness that empowers us! Grand View will participate in Breast Cancer Awareness month by having a Pink Out Day and Football Game on Thursday, October 5.
