As one of the brains behind Save A Woman Initiative (SAWI), I appreciate the fact that ignorance kills yet just a little knowledge saves!
Only moving around with information about prevention, causes, symptoms and signs of cervical cancer to communities, churches, public gatherings and radio stations, the team at SAWI has managed to save many lives over the past years. This has been realized by the many “Thank you and please come again” calls received!!- Yes to share the little information with even bigger groups and refer them to service provision centers.

SAWI, this is just the beginning. A lot needs to be done. I for one and on behalf of Straight Talk Foundation (think that) we can sensitize on radio together with SAWI. I believe with more sensitization, many women can turn up for screening and this is the key platform for saving the mothers of this
nation.
