GCF BULLETIN
The official Newsletter of the Gynecologic Cancer Foundation
Summer 2001
Spread the Word!
As September rolls around the corner, so does Gynecologic Cancer Awareness
Month (GCAM). Your support and dedication in the past two years has helped
urge women to take action and safeguard their gynecologic health by incorporating
early detection and prevention techniques into their regular health routine.
GCF challenges each of you once again to reach out to your community and
publicize GCAM. To propel your efforts, GCF has redesigned the free publicity
kit, which provides a variety of ways to raise awareness and support GCAM.
The new, contemporary look makes the publicity kit more user friendly
and comprehensible. As in the past years, the kit includes event ideas,
sample media materials, and guidance for generating publicity in your
community. For the first time ever, we also added a template letter for
you to urge your state’s Governor to declare September "Gynecologic
Cancer Awareness Month." States that have already officially received
proclamation (at the time of print) include:
- Alabama
- Indiana
- Iowa
- North Carolina
- Ohio
- Minnesota
Look for the publicity kit in the mail, online
or call GCF Headquarters to request one.
To gain national media attention, GCF has partnered with Ketchum Chicago
to coordinate the public relations activities for GCAM. Efforts include
developing press materials, alerting print and broadcast media about GCAM,
and securing interviews for gynecologic oncologists with reporters.
Let’s make GCAM 2001 the best year yet!
