"Our experience is that many young women are not aware of their risk for breast cancer," said MJ DeCoteau, Executive Director, Rethink Breast Cancer. "The use of 'hot guys' as a reminder for women to be breast aware is actually a great way for them to learn about breast health in a non-scary way. The idea behind our education initiatives is to break through the information clutter and remind women to know their bodies and be proactive in protecting them."
Download the free App today and join the fight in early breast cancer detection for celebration of October's Breast Cancer Awareness Month and then show your breasts some T.L.C. (Touch. Look. Check.) From the App choose from one of six guys to provide the monthly reminder and then share with a friend to see what guy they utilize. With the touch of the screen, customize the App by changing the special calendar settings and appointment reminders. Utilize the 'Signs and Symptoms' tab within the App to answer any questions or concerns.
The App is available now to download free for iPhone mobile devices and will be available for free download on Android mobile devices later this month.
In 2006, Rethink launched a TLC campaign in Canada to encourage women to be breast aware.
