This #NationalCancerSurvivorsMonth, we’re celebrating the impact survivors make. After Ignite, Carmen launched MANO to uplift others impacted by cancer, leading to a career in advocacy, research, & policy. Survivorship isn’t the end. It can be the beginning of something bigger.

This #NationalMensHealthWeek, we’re reflecting on a pivotal moment for our Mizizi workshops in Kenya. In our first men’s session, men impacted by cancer let their guard down and emotional healing began. Vulnerability isn’t weakness. Silence shouldn’t be the standard.

This #NationalCancerSurvivorsMonth, we’re spotlighting what survivorship really looks like. For Megan-Claire, it meant fighting to be seen and heard. That fight turned her into an advocate for herself and others.

#PrideMonth reminds us: health prosperity means being seen and heard. After years of dismissal, Paula—a Black queer woman—was diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal cancer. Now, she's a voice for early screening and self-advocacy: thepatientstory.com/patient-storie…
