La Comunidad Hispana is coordinating free bus transportation to the Susan G. Komen’s Latinas United for the Cure event at the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown on Saturday, March 23.

The event is free and open to everyone and includes bus transportation and lunch paid for by the Komen organization. To reserve a spot or to receive additional information, call Soledad Duran at LCH at 610-444-7550 ext. 207. Duran said last year three buses were used to transport participants.

The “Hope Breast Cancer: Knowledge, Strength and Support for your Life”

event starts with a panel to discuss breast cancer and sexuality. Group sessions will then be held. The sessions are available in both English and Spanish. The event begins with registration at 8:30 a.m.

The Komen Philadelphia Affiliation Community has local resources for women in need of mammograms as well as breast cancer diagnosis, treatment and support.

La Comunidad Hispana was established in 1973 as a community-based nonprofit organization to empower immigrants and low-income residents in Chester County to stay healthy, build strong families and lead productive, fulfilling lives. LCH is a culturally competent, bilingual, bicultural agency that reflects the community it serves. For more information, go towww.lacomunidadhispana.org or call 610-444-7550, ext. 242.
