Cancer is a word many of us don’t like to say out loud. It makes people uncomfortable, afraid, and unsure of what to do next. For some, it feels easier not to know. But at the Magdalene Iyamu Cancer Foundation (MICF), we have learned one simple truth: awareness saves lives.

Being aware means paying attention—to our bodies, our health, and the small signs we are sometimes tempted to ignore. It means understanding that cancer is not always a death sentence, especially when it is found early. Knowledge gives us power, and power gives us a chance.

Be Brave to Survive

Bravery doesn’t mean you are not afraid. It means you choose to act even when you are. For many people, going for screening or asking a doctor questions feels intimidating. But that one brave step could make all the difference.

Every day, people delay seeking help because they hope symptoms will disappear or believe myths that cancer “cannot happen to them.” Unfortunately, waiting often allows the disease to grow quietly. Choosing to get checked is choosing life.

Get Screened Today

Screening is one of the kindest things you can do for yourself and for the people who love you. When cancer is detected early, treatment is often easier, more effective, and less costly. In Nigeria, many cancer cases are discovered late, not because help does not exist, but because awareness came too late.

Getting screened today could protect your tomorrow.

We Are Stronger Together

Cancer awareness is not just for those already affected—it is for families, friends, communities, and workplaces. When we talk openly about cancer, support one another, and encourage early action, we reduce fear and save lives together.

At MICF, we are committed to walking this journey with you—through education, awareness, early detection, and support.
