Advocacy and Awareness Program
The Advocacy & Awareness Program endeavours to generate awareness and interest in the goals, mission, vision, objectives and programs of the Foundation through the conduct of awareness activities and pursuit of advocacies. EPCALM will conduct an Awareness and Promotion Campaign using the following activities:
A. Healthy Lifestyle Advocacy
Adopting a Healthy Lifestyle advocacy is EPCALM’s way of endorsing the slogan:
“….Prevention is always better than the cure…”
By advocating a healthy lifestyle, the Foundation hopes to lessen the number of causes that might lead one to contract the disease. The Health in Wellness Conventions is in support of this advocacy.
B. Participation in Annual National Events
In support of the Philippine Government’s drive to promote health awareness through the Department of Health (DOH), The Foundation will actively participate in DOH-sponsored events, as follows:
a. National Cancer Awareness Week (Month of January);
b. World Cancer Day (Month of February);
c. World Blood Donor Day (Month of June);
