Hope in Every Page: BMS English Literary Club Spreads Smiles and Awareness
The English Literary Club (ELC) of BMS Campus marked Cancer Awareness Month with its heartfelt initiative, “Hope in Every Page.” The event, held on 18th October 2025, aimed to raise awareness about different types of cancer while bringing happiness and hope to patients at the Apeksha Cancer Hospital, Maharagama.
As part of the awareness campaign, the ELC highlighted the cancers recognized in,
- September: Childhood Cancer, Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, Leukemia, Lymphoma, Ovarian, Prostate, Thyroid, and Uterine Cancer
- October: which includes Breast, Liver, and Metastatic Breast Cancer.
During the hospital visit, ELC volunteers, lecturers, and students engaged 100 children in storytelling, singing, dancing, art and craft sessions, and fun games that brought smiles and laughter to their faces. The team also donated essential items to both the Children’s and Adults’ wards, offering comfort and support to patients and their families.
The project provided a meaningful volunteer experience for ELC members, allowing them to connect compassion with action. It also helped raise awareness and support for children battling cancer, showing that even small efforts can make a big difference.
The English Literary Club and BMS Campus extend heartfelt thanks to all students, parents, lecturers, and supporters who helped make “Hope in Every Page” a success. The Club remains dedicated to spreading kindness, awareness, and hope through every story and every smile shared.
