This year’s face of the Pink Ball on the Field project was Demet Özdemir to draw attention to breast cancer. The actress reminded that she had participated in this project before, but she was among the dancers at that time.
Demet Özdemir is very proud to have received such an offer. Explaining the reason for this, the actress said: “I was very happy when this offer came. I used to dance there. It has been a great honor for me to be shooting balls there now, under the name of such an awareness project.”
Demet Özdemir stated that she will both remember her past and be proud, as well as provide a good awareness. Demet Özdemir, explaining that she did not have much knowledge about breast cancer but learned important details with this project, made a call to all women.
“All women over the age of 40 should definitely have their check-ups once a year. Our young girls can also test themselves from home without going to the doctor. When we say cancer, it sounds scary. Early diagnosis always saves lives. That’s why we look at the more positive side. We want to give this message as well. We want that the earlier they learn about the disease, the sooner there are treatment methods. Actually, it’s not that scary. I wish all patients a speedy recovery.”
Explaining that she gave importance to the controls when she had a sports background because he danced, the actress said that there were times when she went to the sets of the TV series, because of the intense tempo. Explaining that she has a check-up once a year, the actress also gave this advice to everyone.
The Pink Ball will be thrown by Demet Özdemir in the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague match to be played between Anadolu Efes Sports Club and UNICS Kazan on Thursday, October 21, 2021.
