Over one hundred youths in the East End of Freetown joined Rowaca Cancer Group to celebrate LiveStrong Day October 2, to commemorate the day the founder and CEO of Lance Amstrong Foundation, Lance Amstrong, was diagnosed with cancer.
The celebration, which was organized by the Community Based Organization, Rowaka Cancer Group (RCG), was held at Wellington in Freetown.
RCG has been working to promote awareness among grassroots people on cancer disease, and LiveStrong Day was a unique day in the history of the organization as the occasion was celebrated in many other countries championed by LiveStrong.
Being that Sierra Leone has a high youth population, targeting cigarette smoking and the use of illegal drugs is key to the organization’s advocacy campaigns.
