Squad Music Group artists get involved in 2010 Avon Walk For Breast Cancer in San Francisco

SAN FRANCISCO, CA, June 27, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Squad Music Group (SMG) recording artists SomaliA star of the web series "Building Somalia", and Johnny Fresh members Jin Chhabra & Jordan Austin will be volunteering at the 2010 Avon Walk for Breast Cancer Walk in San Francisco.

Approximately 178,480 women and 2,030 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year. 40,460 women and 450 men in the U.S. will die from the disease annually. Tragically, every 13 minutes, a life is lost to breast cancer.

BUT THERE IS HOPE. Early detection saves lives. There are over 2 million breast cancer survivors in the U.S. who have been treated for breast cancer. Yearly mammograms are recommended starting at age 40 and continuing for as long as a woman is in good health. A clinical breast exam (CBE) should be part of a periodic health exam, about every 3 years for women in their 20s and 30s and every year for women 40 and over.

Jordan Austin and Jin Chhabra together form the group Johnny Fresh, and are represented by Don't Be Shy Entertainment. Johnny Fresh is preparing a special T-shirt with all proceeds from sales being donated to The American Cancer Society. They will be releasing their debut single "Fallen 4 U" on Squad Music Group/Island Def Jam Digital Distribution July, 20, 2010.


Jordan Austin has expressed, "What is needed is public awareness and organized efforts to encourage early detection. Doing research and speaking with survivors has been inspirational."

Jin Chhabra added, "I didn't know men could have breast cancer. I want to be able to do more to help, and volunteering at the 2010 Avon Breast Walk is my first step towards achieving this goal."

Also, in addition to participating in this year's Avon Breast Cancer Walk, SomaliA - represented by Adore Management, and working on her untitled sophomore album with The Squad Music Group - will be also be performing at the Relay For Life June 26th in San Jose, California. All proceeds for this event will go to the American Cancer Society.
