Miss Guyana World 2012, Arti Cameron with Michelle Cole of COLEFACTS and Natasha Blu-Martindale at the N.Y. Revlon Walk/Run against cancer

Miss Guyana World 2012, Arti Cameron, recently joined about 25, 000 people from all over the world in the Revlon Walk/Run For Women. The Revlon Walk/Run against all cancers affecting women was held on Saturday, May 5, 2012, in Manhattan, New York.

Miss Cameron took the three-mile journey on the rainy morning alongside Cancer survivors, family members of those who have lost the battle, and those who are in support of finding a cure for the life-threatening disease. “I walked in support of women in Guyana and those across the world who have lost the fight and those who are still fighting against the deadly disease,” Cameron said.

Cameron’s team members for this event were two other dynamic Guyanese women: designer Michelle Cole of COLEFACTS, who lost her mother, Hermie Cole, to cancer, and Natasha Blu-Martindale, an artist and accountant who lost both her father and grandfather to the disease. Also present at the event were Hollywood celebrities and Revlon’s global ambassadors Emma Stone and Olivia Wilde.

Miss Cameron reached the finish line in 42 minutes in high spirits and has already expressed the desire to be part of the annual event. The reigning queen highlighted that it is important that more people stand together so that a cure for women’s and all cancers will be found soon. This annual event started in 1994, and has been committed to supporting pioneering cancer research and providing psycho-social as well as financial support for women fighting the deadly disease.
