As part of the « Pink Illumination » campaign, organized by the non-profit Pink Ribbon, the municipal building will be lit in pink. This event marks the start of October Rose, the month for breast cancer awareness.
Through this initiative, Lasne joins over 80 Belgian municipalities in sending a message of solidarity to those affected by the disease and their loved ones.
The Pink Ribbon non-profit reminds us that one in eight women in Belgium is affected by this type of cancer in her lifetime, with one in a thousand cases occurring in men.
The month of October will serve to emphasize the importance of information and early screening for this disease.
