World Cancer Day February 4th

  • January 30, 2019
World Cancer Day NETS

This World NET Cancer Day, INCA (International Neuroendocrine Cancer Alliance) is launching a one-week campaign on social media “I Am Ready, and I Will Make a Change for NETs”.  This global call for action on social media platforms aims to boost awareness. Watch on INCA facebook and twitter pages in the lead up to this day and engage with INCA’s posts to make a change for NETs.

The campaign is highlighting three key needs of NET patients:

– greater awareness about NETs among physicians

– equity in best treatment everywhere

– more research in NETs with patient involvement

We encourage all supporters to change their profile pictures to the one above and post on social media using hashtags #changefornets #letstalkaboutnets #WorldCancerDay #IAmAndIWill

For more information on becoming involved in World Cancer Day activities, visit their website here.
