Galata Tower Goes Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness
In honor of “Breast Cancer Awareness Month”, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism recently projected a pink ribbon onto the iconic Galata Tower. The message “Early diagnosis saves lives” accompanied the image, emphasizing the importance of early detection in fighting breast cancer.
The striking display caught the attention of both locals and tourists, with many onlookers pausing to take photos of the illuminated tower. This gesture is part of a global effort to raise awareness about breast cancer during the month of October.
Since 1993, the “Pink Ribbon” has served as a symbol for the fight against breast cancer, with various events and initiatives organized worldwide to educate and support those affected by the disease. This symbolic act on the Galata Tower serves as a reminder of the ongoing need for early detection and support for individuals battling breast cancer.
