Breast and cervix uteri are two of the top three mortality cancer sites amongst Filipino women.*
Enabled by global grants, we donated two mobile clinics to the Philippine Cancer Society, who will provide your community with breast and cervical cancer screening.

Being a Community Sponsor is Easy
Services Rendered
You can request a mobile clinic for your office employees and communities. Our medical staff will provide breast and cervical cancer screening.
Depending on the screening results, the medical staff may also:
Perform diagnostic procedures using a breast ultrasound machine and biopsy gun
Or provide a precursor treatment for cervical cancer using a cryotherapy machine
Mobile Clinic Operation
Primarily Metro Manila is served. The Clinic can travel to Cavite, Rizal and Bulacan for an extra cost.
Mobile Clinic days of operation: Monday-Saturday, excluding holidays.
Mobile clinic arrival: 8:30 AM. Screening start time: 9:15 AM. There will be a briefing with barangay volunteers or appointed marshals and orientation of patients by the medical team.
They will also provide mission reports/feedback at the end of the outreach and will monitor and assist patients with concerns/findings.
Your Costs
A P15K donation covers the day’s operation in Metro Manila, like consumables and gas consumption. A 20K donation covers same for Cavite, Rizal and Bulacan.
Overnight accommodations must be paid for multi-day operations.
Your Role
Maximize the time you have with the mobile clinic by preparing days in advance a numbered pre-registration process for all prospective patients. The mobile clinic can accommodate 10-15 patients per hour or 100 daily.
On the day of the outreach, you will facilitate patient check-in.
Please provide lunch and 2 snacks for the 6-7 medical personnel.
Patient Requirements
Breast exam screening is for women 40-74 years or older. Cervical cancer screening is for women ages 25-65 years.
Pregnant women and virgins can avail themselves of breast cancer screening, NOT cervical cancer screening.
For cervical cancer screening, patients must not be actively having their periods. Preferably, the patients will come a week after their period.
Patients who avail of the cryotherapy treatment after a cervical cancer screening, should refrain from having sexual contact for at least three weeks AFTER the treatment to allow the treated area to heal properly.
