The World’s Largest Flying Scrotum to Help Fight Testicular Cancer
From: Male Cancer Awareness Campagin
On 24th July, 'Skyballs' was launched, the biggest awareness raising project for testicular cancer by any charity ever. Presented by charity ambassador & comedy legend Chris O'Dowd, 'Skyballs' will spread the message that early detection of testicular cancer saves lives.
Here’s FIVE REASONS why the world needs a hot air balloon shaped like a gigantic testicles right now:
1. The death of young men to testicular cancer can be prevented.
2. Ignorance & embarrassment are just two reasons this cancer causes any more trouble than it needs to. The way we can stop this is through awareness & confrontation.
3. A massive flying ball-sack will be impossible to ignore. And hopefully chip away at the taboos still surrounding this nasty little cancer.
4. Our balloon will also have a lifespan & a cost efficiency that will outperform any other media initiative: It is reusable, easily transported globally and should last us at least 10 years.
5. It’s a massive pair of flying gonads!
So we are probably going to upset a few people along the way. Sorry about that ;-)
But ‘SkyBalls’ will give Male Cancer Awareness Campaign the ultimate awareness tool.
It is indisputable that early detection and early treatment are vital in this fight.
And it could be argued that ‘SkyBalls’ will be the world’s biggest awareness project. This balloon will certainly be MCAC’s main focus in our campaign to make young men aware of the early warning signs of testicular cancer.
Increasing awareness of testicular cancer is really important. And if one life gets saved because someone sees our balloon and is inspired to start #JustCheckingForLumps then it will more than have repaid the amount of money we will have invested in this project.
£ 100k will allow us to design and build the balloon. PLUS it will cover the full operational / flying costs for its first year.
This enormous billboard in the sky has a lifespan of over a decade. It can, and will, travel across the world. And we hope it will deliver its vitally serious message from above in a way that will bring plenty of smiles and editorial coverage on the ground.
You can donate as little or as much as you want in most international currencies and we are operating a fixed funding structure so will only take the cash if the project gets fully funded.
If you need further convincing there are plenty of perks donated by some rather special friends of Male Cancer Awareness Campaign.
