Oliver KazungaSenior ReporterTHE 10th edition of the Zimpapers Cancer Power Walk this year takes on a new colour – green – with participants across the country uniting to raise awareness and celebrate life in the fight against cancer.Speaking ahead of the event tomorrow, Zimpapers public relations and events manager, Mrs Pauline Matanda, said the decision to wear green is meant to broaden the message of cancer awareness beyond one type of cancer.“Many people associate cancer awareness with pink, but the fact is that cancer is not just about one colour or one type.“Each form of cancer has its own awareness colour, and this year we chose green to highlight liver cancer awareness,” she said.The colour green, she said, carries deep symbolic meaning.“Green represents growth, renewal and life – values that reflect the strength and resilience of cancer patients and survivors.“By wearing green, we are not only showing support for those battling liver cancer, but also celebrating the courage of everyone affected by cancer in its many forms.”The annual Cancer Power Walk continues to serve as a platform for building unity and compassion within communities, she added.“When we walk together, we remind each other that awareness and early detection save lives.
This event brings together families, survivors, corporate partners and health advocates — all united by one purpose,” said Mrs Matanda.She encouraged participants to wear their green with pride and spread the message that cancer awareness is about supporting each other and celebrating life.Leave a ReplyCancel reply
