On November 6, the Gomel' Regional Oncological Center hosted the Project Kesher (an international women's organization, which is part of the Euro-Asian Jewish Congress) initiative “Women Against Breast Cancer”.

As Project Kesher volunteer in Gomel' Elena Zaitseva noted, “As any woman can wind up in a difficult situation completely out of the blue for herself and her family, it is very important to be informed in advance of both preventative measures and of the ways to get help in treatment and rehabilitation. Today's rehabilitation event turned out to be very important and meaningful for the patients of this oncological center. And it took place thanks to the fruitful cooperation between the administration and doctors of the center, the patients, and the local community.”
