São Paulo FC welcomed women from the "Marque Esse Gol" breast cancer awareness campaign to its Barra Funda training center on Oct. 13; a mobile mammography unit will offer free screenings at MorumBIS on Oct. 15–16.
Why it matters
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The "Marque Esse Gol" ("Score This Goal") campaign pairs football's visibility with public health, bringing a free screening truck right into the stadium to lower barriers for women — breast cancer detected early has a cure rate of up to 95%.
