Matamata Toastmasters invite you to their "Pink Meeting"
The New Zealand Breast Cancer Foundation (NZBCF) website states that each year over 2600 New Zealand women and 20 men are diagnosed with breast cancer. 1 in 9 women are at risk at being diagnosed with breast cancer, with a death rate of over 12 per week.
October is Breast Cancer Action Month with a challenge from NZBCF to take action to raise awareness about breast cancer and to raise funds for their life-saving work. And Matamata Toastmasters is doing exactly that.
Matamata Toastmasters has themed their next meeting as a "Pink Meeting" in honour of the breast cancer action month. Matamata Toastmaster's resident naturopath member and experienced health speaker, Linda Hoggard (Naturopathic Diploma) will be delivering a speech on good, bad and xeno-oestrogens and their role in oestrogen dependant cancers. The club's president, Amrita Balaraman, will be delivering a speech on her favourite colour - pink, and there are other fun "pink" events lined up for the evening.
Matamata Toastmasters provides a safe forum to increase self confidence, become a good communicator, develop leadership skills and have fun. So don on something pink, bring along a gold coin donation for the New Zealand Brest Cancer Foundation, and come along to the Matamata Toastmasters' Pink Meeting on Wednesday, 19 October 2011 at the All Saints Church Lounge situated on the corner of Broadway and Hohaia Streets in Matamata at 7.15 pm.
For more information, contact Amrita on 027 261 0939 and visit the Matamata Toastmasters website on http://matamata.toastmastersclubs.org. For more information on October Breast Cancer Action Month, visit the New Zealand Breast Cancer Foundation website on http://www.nzbcf.org.nz/
