During the training representatives of the National Breast Cancer Association ‘In the Name of Life!’, Women's Council RPA and Fund Forum discussed the ways of expanding the scope of the marathon, proposed new ideas on how to increase the number of participants in the marathon and make it more interesting and effective. They underlined the need to inform people of the charities of this kind using billboards and Internet resources such as websites of the organizers and popular social networks.

‘Race for the Cure’ marathons in each country have their own design of products and t-shirts, the fees from the sale of which are spent for purchasing drugs and diagnosis of women.

“Our organization is a global leader in fighting breast cancer,” says Donna Sanderson. “We organize marathons in various countries every year. We have signed an agreement of cooperation with the National Breast Cancer Association ‘In the name of Life’ in Uzbekistan this year. I am sure our cooperation will be successful and fruitful since we have common goals: to raise awareness on breast cancer, early diagnostics, and cutting mortality. We are planning to hold a charity marathon in April-May, and discuss our further cooperation in this sphere and joint organization of other actions.”

The funds raised during the marathon are forwarded to finance diagnostic actions and purchase the medicines needed.
