Councilwoman Marianne Butler (D-15) is sponsoring Breast Cancer Screenings and Mammograms for Women 40 years an older on Saturday, May 12th.

“Early detection of breast cancer is one of the best ways to fight this disease. It is my hope that women over 40 will take advantage of this event. Many of us know of someone who has lost a love one because of breast cancer,” says Butler.

The Breast Cancer / Mammography Screenings are for the Most Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church, 3509 Taylor Blvd.

Councilwoman Butler is partnering with Horses and Hope, The University of Louisville Hospital, the James Graham Brown Cancer Center and the Kentucky Cancer Program.

The Mammograms are for women age 40 and older. There is no cost to program eligible women without insurance. Insurance will be filed for women with coverage. Appointments are required for the screening.

Call 368-8211 to make an appointment.
