Grace Cancer Run

Head and neck (mouth, larynx, throat or nose) cancers account for a large portion of the total number of cancer cases reported in India, and nearly half of the patients with such type of cancers die within a year of diagnosis. Over 1.7 lakh cancer cases are reported every year of which 76% are males; many patients come for treatment only after cancer has reached advanced stage.

Nearly 70% of head and neck cancers are related to consumption of  tobacco, areca nut and alcohol. Unfortunately, these causative agents are freely available either due to weak policy or implementation, or absence of it. 

Recently TV9 supported Race For Grace, a cancer awareness run and urged people to stay away from tobacco. The run is a chance to challenge oneself, set new limits and reduce cancer risk by being physically active. Early detection is the key to conquering cancer and anyone can make meaningful and significant changes in lifestyle to  prevent occurrence of cancer.

TV9 telecast promos on social media platforms, aired scrolls and covered the event LIVE to spread awareness regarding the importance of early detection as it goes a long way in preventing cancer complications.

The race to save lives run was organised by Grace Cancer Foundation. People from all walks of life joined the run in the fight against cancer and ran alongside those who are impacted by cancer. Hyderabad CP Anjani Kumar flagged off the run where nearly seven thousand young men and women participated.

HelpAge India

TV9 has been associated with the National level NGO HelpAge India's Hyderabad chapter for many years. For an estimated 104 million elderly in India, more than fifty percent suffer abuse and neglect from kith and kin. Property issues were found to be the prime reason.

As a channel that stands for the motto 'Better Society' TV9 has been sensitising viewers to take care of their parents and the elderly. TV9 feels the need to understand senior citizens issues and has been scrolling Toll-free Elder Helpline numbers.  The Helpline links elders to various institutions such as old age homes, hospitals, police, government and non-governmental organizations.

The 2018 'Elder Abuse Study' report, released by HelpAge India found that sons were the foremost perpetrators of elder abuse. The main reason for abuse was related to the abuser wanting to live independently, property, lack of resources to meet the needs of elders and dislike for the senior’s way of living. Though there is greater understanding among seniors about abuse, reporting remains dismally low while many did not know how to deal with the problem, suggesting lack of awareness.
