Pink Ribbon Red Ribbon in Namibia and Ethiopia
- 2. Pink Ribbon Red Ribbon, a health partnership that benefits from the support of entities such as Susan G. Komen, the George W. Bush Institute, and the U.S. government, has expanded its reach into Ethiopia and Namibia. Over the last three years, the group has brought screening for cervical cancer to more than 100,000 women in Zambia, Tanzania, and Botswana. Cervical cancer kills more women in Sub-Saharan Africa than any other disease and poses a particularly large threat to women in Ethiopia and Namibia.
- 3. The expansion was made possible with the help of a number of partners. GlaxoSmithKline pledged $2 million to help with national strategy and vaccination in Ethiopia. GE Healthcare kicked in $500,000 to help the Ethiopian-American Doctors Group develop a cancer center in the Ethiopian capital of Addis Ababa. Pink Ribbon Red Ribbon will provide funds for health workers in Namibia, and the International Atomic Energy Agency will contribute to the fight against cervical cancer in both Namibia and Ethiopia.
