Educational program rolled out for breast cancer patients

China launched its first educational program tailored for breast cancer patients and survivors earlier this month.

The new initiative, All About Breast Cancer, was jointly developed by Goldman Sachs Gives, United Family Hospital, Beijing Cancer Hospital and Samsung Medical Center. It was showcased at the Sixth United States-China Consultation on People-to-People Exchange, which was co-hosted by Vice-Premier Liu Yandong and US Secretary of State John Kerry.

The educational material was rolled out as part of the Goldman Sachs Gives' "HerCare: Breast Cancer Education and Awareness Initiative", a multi-million dollar, regional program that has been launched on the Chinese mainland, Hong Kong and South Korea. The initiative was made possible by the support of a group of Asian-based partners.
