One in every eight women will fight breast cancer in her lifetime. Female breast cancer has surpassed lung cancer as the most diagnosed cancer worldwide. And breast cancer affects men too.

This weekend, New Yorkers are doing their part to help win the battle against breast cancer. They will take part in several Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walks in the city Sunday.

Chloe Lipman, the vice president of development at the American Cancer Society, joined Rocco Vertuccio and Shannan Ferry Saturday morning on NY1 to discuss breast cancer and how city residents can join the fight against the disease.
