CAIRO， May 8 (Xinhua) -- Around 1，000 Egyptian women of different ages and from different cultural and social backgrounds rolled their sleeves up to burn calories for a noble cause.


Aiming to raise awareness and empower women fighting breast cancer， the Breast Cancer Foundation of Egypt (BCFE) held a fitness-fundraising event， titled "Zumba Pink Party for Egyptian Daughters，" at Cairo on Saturday.


"Our main goal is to encourage the girls to practice sports to prevent breast cancer，" said Hanan Omar， media representative with the BCFE.


Zumba， a dance fitness program involving dance and aerobic movements performed to energetic music， was highlighted at Saturday's party.


Ladies in plain pink T-shirts decorated with pink ribbon， the international symbol of breast cancer awareness， were following international Zumba instructors' energetic steps to Latin music.


"Zumba is a tempo dance which burns calories in short time， strengthens heart muscles， and helps in raising high the morale of the patients，" said Emily Lavander， a Zumba instructor from the United States.


"It is not just about dancing and fun， Zumba party is also an entertaining way to raise women's attention on breast cancer awareness，" Omar told Xinhua.


During the party， a video on women who recovered from breast cancer was screened， featuring their fights against the disease.


According to the statistics of BCFE， breast cancer represents 29 percent of women's cancer cases in the world and 37.5 percent of women's cancer cases in Egypt.


Egyptians do not prefer moving or practicing sports， which might serve as a factor in the high breast cancer rate here， Omar said.


"Most of Egyptian women do not believe that cancer could be treated， so they are reluctant to have a breast exam in the first place，" said Omar， calling for early cancer diagnosis to help treat the disease.


Women above forty should get mammography x-rays once a year， while under that age women should get periodic tests via self-examination， the BCFE official added.


Eman al-Aasy， a 44-year-old breast cancer patient， said that after she had discovered the disease three years ago， she has been going to the BCFE activities regularly， as these activities get her out of the gloomy atmosphere and fill her with positive energy.


"It was my fault that I dealt with the problem with negligence at the beginning，" al-Asay said， calling for girls to conduct self-examination every month to avoid such painful experience.


Speaking to the already diagnosed women， she said "Don't be freak， you are as normal as any women， and always keep your morale high to overcome the problem."


"Zumba improves the psychological well-being， and practicing physical activities is essential to increase energy and decrease cancer related-fatigue，" said Zyban Aly， another breast cancer patient at the party.


She also stressed the importance of early diagnoses as she had to remove her whole left breast due to late diagnose.


"Breast cancer is not the end of world， we have to live， dance and participate in awareness activities，" Aly said.

- Bring Your Time and Talent! :

Alumni play an important part in the educational process of our youth Wholesale Joffrey Lauvergne Jersey , and Harrisburg Academy is actively working toward growing our alumni involvement. Often, alumni support is viewed as providing only a financial contribution in the form of the Academy Fund. While it is important for alumni to contribute their "treasure," it is also just as important for alumni to give back with their time and talent.

Over the last year Wholesale Pau Gasol Jersey , the Development and Alumni Office has worked to implement a number of ways for our alumni to engage and give back other than with monetary contributions. We hosted the first Distinguished Leaders in Residence (DLR) program, giving alumni the opportunity to interact directly with our current students on campus. We were honored to host David Brason '74, Lewis Lehrman '56 Wholesale Danny Green Jersey , and Jeffrey Morrison '88, who shared with our students on topics in their respective areas of expertise. In addition, several alumni accepted our invitation to return as guest speakers in middle and upper school classes. Academy students enjoy these interactions Wholesale Patty Mills Jersey , and the opportunity to see successful alumni, who sat in the very same seats when they were at the Academy.

"I like hearing their experiences in the things that we're learning about in school," said Kate C. ‘20. "I like that it is their point of view instead of a textbook point of view."

As the Academy dives into its 230th academic year Wholesale Dejounte Murray Jersey , we are looking forward to strengthening the connection between alumni and current students of Harrisburg Academy. We are excited to again host our Alumni Achievement Awards and Athletics Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, and this year we are inviting current Middle and Upper School students to hear about the notable accomplishments of Academy graduates. In addition, we will host the 2nd Annual DLR program and seek to pair graduating seniors with alumni to complete their senior internship. All of these alumni engagement opportunities add up to a healthy and vibrant alumni relations program Wholesale Derrick White Jersey , now and in the future.

- A Blueprint for the Academy's Future:

In creating the model for our strategic planning, the administration made a few key decisions. First, we endeavored to engage our entire school community in the process. This approach allows all Academy community stakeholders Wholesale Kyle Anderson Jersey , as well as friends of the Academy, to provide feedback. We also decided to shorten the strategic planning timeline from five years to just three. This allows the Academy to more quickly adapt and react to the rapidly changing educat.
