In order to help raise awareness about the need for early detection of breast cancer, the U.S. Embassy in Podgorica is illuminated pink in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, celebrated every October.

According to the World Health Organization, breast cancer is the most common cancer in women both in the developed and less developed world. But millions of women are surviving the disease nowadays, primarily as a result of early detection and improvements in treatment. We join in calling for all women to take the time to take care of your health!
