Pink Ball 2019 Generations

The DC Foundation sponsors the Pink Ball 2019 “Generations" event, hosted by the Hong Kong Hereditary Breast Cancer Family Registry. Donations collected this year will be used for appropriate early treatment in order to significantly improve survival rates. Hereditary cancer accounts for 10-15 per cent of all breast cancer cases. We believe that early detection and ongoing services for patients with hereditary cancer, such as genetic testing and free ovarian cancer medications, will contribute vastly to improved survival rates, and will launch a free full-service, high-risk breast surveillance programme, including 3D mammograms for low- and middle- income people this year, as well as breast ultrasound and MRI breast scans.
