🎉 SCAN TURNS 9! 🎗️🍏
For our 9th anniversary, we wanted to keep things simple, active, and meaningful. Led by our President, Ms. Emmy, SCAN members hit the pavement and joined the DBKU Car Free Morning for an energetic Aerodance session! 🤸‍♂️💃
To spread the joy (and some good health!), our members distributed fresh apples to everyone who joined in the workout. 🍎✨
At SCAN, we want to remind everyone that health is wealth. Making time for regular exercise and choosing healthy food are powerful ways to reduce cancer risks.
A massive thank you to everyone who has supported us over the last 9 years and helped us reach this milestone. We couldn't do this without you! 🤝❤️
Together, we keep moving forward—advocating for better cancer care in Sarawak! 🏔️✨
