Catch appearances by @LionelRichie, @MathewKnowles, @TheLeARobinson & more, plus a special @_nightbirde tribute during #LightUpMBC 💗 Join us as we shine a light on the importance of awareness & funding for stage 4 breast cancer THURSDAY at 9pm ET/6pm PT: https://t.co/UpVFvmj9by

MBC FACT: There is currently no cure for breast cancer and as a result stage 4 MBC patients are in treatment for their entire life. They are often scanned every 3 months to monitor whether their current treatment plan is working by looking for any signs of progression. 💚💙💖

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. It was so fun to partake in the 1st Annual #LightUpMBC run/walk, benefiting @metavivor, a non-profit organization dedicated to funding research and increasing awareness of stage 4 metastatic breast cancer.

MBC Fact: Men get breast cancer too. All people, male and female, are born with some breast cells and tissue. Even though males do not develop milk-producing breasts, a man’s breast cells and tissue can still develop cancer. 💚💙💖 #LightUpMBC #Metavivor

MBC Fact: Metastatic Breast Cancer is a terminal illness that is treatable but not curable. Because there is no cure, MBC treatments focus on the long-term quality of life of the patient. People often associate hair loss with cancer but that is not always the case with MBC.💚💙💖

MBC FACT: Overcoming Health Disparities in MBC is a key focus area for @metavivor . To learn more visit: https://t.co/daUt7OhPl8 #LightUpMBC #BreastCancer #MetastaticBreastCancer #metavivor #mbc #MetastaticBC #metastatic #StageIVneedsmore #DontIgnoreStageIV #ResearchMatters

MBC FACT: You can help us change this by supporting the sole non-profit in the U.S. that puts 100% of what they raise to research @metavivor. See link in out bio to learn more. 💚💖💙 #LightUpMBC #BreastCancer #MetastaticBreastCancer #metavivor #mbc #MetastaticBC #metastatic

MBC FACT: 30% of the breast cancer community diagnosed at stage 0-3 are at risk of a reoccurrence. Stage 0 can and does return as stage 4. It’s not sequential. Please click the link in our bio to get involved and support the MBC community. 💚💖💙 #LightUpMBC #metavivor

#MetastaticBreastCancerAwarenessDay | Our Yonkers Clock Tower (#YCT) will be lit green, teal and pink on Thursday, October 13th!

MBC FACT: Due to a lack of public knowledge about stage 4 Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC) compared with early stage breast cancer, there are many widespread misperceptions. There is NO CURE for MBC. To get involved share these facts and click the link in our bio. 💚💖💙

MBC FACT: The pink ribbon is well-known for the fight against breast cancer, but most stage IV metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients feel that pink does not encapsulate their experience, as it often outshines the severity of the disease. Below explains the MBC ribbon colors.

Please follow our @LightUpMBC official campaign page below. Learn how you can get involved at the link in bio to raise awareness for metastatic breast cancer this Oct.💚💗💙

Every year, more than 600,000 people around the world die from breast cancer. When you die from breast cancer, you die from metastatic breast cancer. Tune into #LightUpMBC Live on Oct 13th and join the fight at the link in bio. 💙💚💖

Metastatic Breast Cancer may start in the breast, but its spread to vital organs makes the disease fatal. To highlight the uniqueness of the disease and show its commonality with other Stage IV cancers, @metavivor designed a base ribbon of green and teal to represent metastasis.

Jessica Moore was a nurse and our best friend. At the age of 32, she was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer and passed away at age 36. She is the inspiration behind the #LightUpMBC campaign. Moore Fight Moore Strong(MFMS) supports Jess' vision to shine a light on MBC💚💗💙

#LightUpMBC is a global campaign that shines a light on metastatic breast cancer, the most advanced stage of breast cancer, where the cancer has spread from the breast to other parts of the body. Join the cause and see if your city is participating at the link in bio. 💙💚💖
