Lika Behar Helps Poor Women Obtain Cancer Screenings
New York, NY—November was a trying month for many people in the Northeast as they struggled to recover from Hurricane Sandy. Despite itself having suffered serious damage in the hurricane, the Lika Behar Collection decided to do something special and different for the holiday. Instead of sending holiday gifts to the firm’s customers, the designer applied her annual gift budget to fund for a day of free breast cancer screening mammograms through the American Italian Cancer Foundation.
“We all know that early detection can mean the difference between life and death,” says designer Behar. “Imagine a mobile clinic, where a poor, uninsured woman can come in and be provided with mammograms, clinical breast exams, and health information. We loved the fact that AICF members actively recruit women one by one, on the streets in all five boroughs of New York City, and in nine languages! It was a privilege to serve our community in your honor,” she said.
“And who knows; maybe we were able to save one life of an underprivileged woman,” she added.
