Liver Cancer Awareness Month
The liver, a football-sized organ in the upper right abdomen, performs many vital functions, including filtering blood, metabolizing nutrients, and detoxifying harmful substances.
Often aggressive, liver cancer forms when cells in the liver grow abnormally and rapidly, forming a tumor that can spread to other areas of the body.
Worldwide, according to the Mayo Clinic, liver cancer is the 6th most common cancer and the 3rd leading cause of cancer-related deaths.

Congratulations you all for a job well done on the first ever Virtual Ball. The event was a mammoth task to execute, but the results were phenomenal.
Who would have thought a virtual ball would have reached so many sponsors that unselfishly supported the mission and vision of the Cancer Society of The Bahamas financially during this critical time of the Corona Virus pandemic.
Thank you Lovern Wildgoose and Nicole Leary-Imhoff, as well as your Committee, as you all have proven that your time and talents are priceless. This year’s event has set the standard and provided a blueprint for next year’s event to be even bigger and better.
Of course we could never repay you for all that you do for the Cancer Society of The Bahamas, but if the world becomes a better place tomorrow, it will happen because of volunteers like you.
