Pennsylvania Convention Center Lights Up for MBC Awareness
Staff Report / PHLlocal.org
The Pennsylvania Convention Center has lit up in teal, green, and pink in honor of Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC) Awareness. This initiative is part of the Light Up MBC global campaign, which aims to raise awareness and support for METAvivor, an organization dedicated to the needs of those affected by MBC.
MBC, also referred to as Stage 4 breast cancer, occurs when the cancer spreads beyond the breast to other areas of the body. The colors chosen for the event hold special meanings: teal represents healing and spirituality, green stands for hope, and pink symbolizes the breast cancer origin.
