From appearing on PIX 11 Morning News to AP Live, Mandy Moore has made no secret of her determination to raise awareness of cervical cancer. As the second leading cause of cancer death for women in their 20's and 30's, cervical cancer is a preventable, yet still-deadly disease.
As we look forward to the final days of Cervical Cancer Awareness Month, MandyMooreBlog.com is thrilled to offer the final portion of Mandy's recent interview on AP LIve. Dedicated to Mandy's recent philanthropic efforts, Mandy talks cervical cancer, and its impact on young women.
Noting her involvement in the Gynecological Cancer Foundation's Reality Check Campaign, Mandy offers a candid portrayal of the disease. "85 percent of woman surveyed about cervical cancer had no idea they were at risk!" says Mandy. "That fact was just mind-boggling!"
"I think its always important to find the balance in life," explains Mandy, "I feel really lucky on one hand to be doing something that I am unbelievably passionate about, and to be able to follow that up with causes that resonate with me, [is] one of the more important things to me."
We couldn't agree more, Mandy!
