Breast Cancer Awareness Month: Show Us Who's Important Rumble

35

Breast cancer can affect both men and women of any age. Early detection can save lives, so we’re working with the charity CoppaFeel! to make Lomographers aware and to recruit you to spread the word worldwide. This photo rumble is all about sharing who is important to you, and sharing the message that you should all be checking your chesticles!

‘By educating the young people of today, we can shape the future of breast cancer survival in times to come. Knowledge is power, this power in turn will save lives. Coppafeel, you could save your life’
- Kris Hallenga, age 26, founder of Coppafeel! and breast cancer sufferer.

Read Kris's LomoAmigo post here, in which she shares photos and stories of her day to day life living with breast cancer.

It is super important that you regularly check yourselves! As Kristin says, it could save your life. Have a look at the Coppafeel! website for how to’s, advice, and also some fab campaigns you can get involved in (even Fearne Cotton is involved!)

For this rumble we want you to..
1. Submit one photo, of the person or people who are most important to you
2. Comment below and tell us who they are
3. Use the share buttons (above the comments) to share this page with everyone you know, and remind them to check themselves too!

There are no prizes for this rumble, as it is all in the name of health and happiness. There are over a million Lomographers worldwide, so lets all help Coppafeel! out!
