Pink Ball on the Field! Hand in Hand for Breast Cancer Awareness

We spent a meaningful day together at the “Pink Ball on the Court” volleyball event and booth, which we organized to raise breast cancer awareness and draw attention to the importance of early diagnosis. In this special event played with a pink ball, we experienced the joy of playing sports while taking another step to raise awareness in our society.

We would like to thank all the athletes, volunteers and everyone who participated. Remember, early diagnosis saves lives!

Don’t be afraid, be aware!
