Together, We Can End Cervical Cancer in the Philippines

Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable forms of cancer—yet far too many Filipinas continue to be diagnosed when it’s already too late. Every single day, 12 Filipinas lose their lives to cervical cancer—a disease that could have been caught early and treated.

This tragedy is not due to a lack of medical knowledge or technology, but due to the lack of access to timely and affordable screening.

Despite a female population of over 54 million, the Philippines has one of the lowest cervical cancer screening rates in the world—with only about 1% of women ever screened. The barriers are clear: limited healthcare infrastructure, few trained specialists, and unequal access in rural and underserved areas.

At End Cervical Cancer Philippines Organization Inc., we believe that no woman should die from a preventable disease simply because of where she lives or how much she earns. We are a non-governmental organization committed to making cervical cancer screening accessible at the grassroots level—bringing life-saving services directly to the barangay.

Our approach uses Speculoscopy-assisted Visual Inspection with Acetic Acid (VIA) combined with Tele-evaluation Technology, enabling trained frontline health workers to perform cervical exams and securely transmit images to offsite medical professionals for assessment. This means screening can happen anywhere, even without a doctor physically present.

We are building a future where no Filipina is left behind—where prevention reaches every corner of the country, and no woman has to die from cervical cancer.

Join us. Together, we can save lives and end cervical cancer in the Philippines.

Our Vision

“A Philippines where no woman dies from a preventable disease.”

Camarines Norte Provincial Hospital Silip Cervix Sagip Buhay with the Rotary Club of Daet North

We envision a future where cervical cancer is eliminated as a public health threat—a future made possible through early detection, equitable access to screening, and strong community-based health systems. By empowering local health workers, embracing innovative technologies like Speculoscopy-assisted VIA with tele-evaluation, and making services available in barangays, workplaces, clinics, and remote areas, we are reshaping how and where women receive care.

Our vision is rooted in the belief that detection should not depend on geography or income. Through the Silip Cervix, Sagip Buhay movement, we aim to build a nation where every woman—regardless of background—has the chance to be seen, screened, and saved.
