Sonam Kapoor Lends Support To Breast Cancer Awareness

  • Sonam Kapoor Lends Support To Breast Cancer Awareness
In an effort to promote breast cancer awareness, Bollywood fashionista Sonam Kapoor, who is also the brand ambassador for Elle Breast Cancer Campaign, is supporting the Ogaan Cancer Foundation with 'Elle Carnival for a Cause'.
 
A joint initiative by Ogaan Cancer Foundation and Elle Breast Cancer Campaign, the event, scheduled for Sunday at The Taj Mahal Hotel here, will feature initiatives to promote breast cancer awarness, said a statement.
 
"It is my privilege to be associated with Ogaan Cancer Foundation and play a part in spreading breast cancer awareness. Everyone seems to know someone with breast cancer -- I lost an aunt to it.
 
"Detecting cancer early is the only way to fight and that requires awareness about tests and a healthy lifestyle. I hope I can make a difference in my own way," said the "Khoobsurat" actress.
 
Multiple brands, including luxury ones like Burberry, Hermes, Gucci, Bvlgari, Louis Vuitton and Chanel, will be participating at the event.
