September 26th Man Up! events were successfully held in Detroit at COTS, Matrix Center and Michigan Barber School. These events provided over 150 people with information regarding prostate cancer and its preventative measures. We had spouses speaking out about how they too can help by encouraging their husbands to get examined. Mrs Patricia Mitchell introduced her husband, David, a prostate cancer survior, as he shouted ManUp! to the participants at the Matrix Center who listened to message by Lee Williams, of BCBSM. Members of 100 in attendance, such as Kevin Harrison assisted in the completion of a pledge for one of many who attended. 100 Chapter member Bill Toples, chairman of Health Wellness Committee, stated "we conducted very successful education sessions" at each of our three sites, and " look forward to our commitment with American Cancer Society, Michigan Department of Community Health, and Blue Cross Blue Shield Michigan" .
