- We, women, need to always be alert. It's very important to do self-examination and try to identify the disease early in its state because this can prevent something worse. Palmeiras has been supporting the Pink October campaign for a long time and we will continue to do so to alert about this problem that is recurrent in the lives of many women - said Leila Pereira

Coach Abel Ferreira will reinforce the campaign by wearing a pink ribbon on the game uniform throughout the month. In addition, some women who have been cured of the disease or are still in treatment will take to the field before one of the Palmeiras games scheduled for October.

The club will also produce a four-episode miniseries to be released on its social networks, interviewing experts and people who have overcome breast cancer, and Palmeiras Cast will address the topic in a special episode. Internally, the Greatest Champion of Brazil will organize a lecture on the subject with an expert for all employees and athletes of the women's football team.
