Morehouse School of Medicine will offer free prostate cancer screenings on September 26, providing men ages 18 and older with access to a free PSA blood test, haircut and $25 incentive.
The screening event centers on the PSA blood test, which will be available at no cost to eligible participants. The offering also includes a haircut and a $25 incentive, giving attendees additional benefits alongside the screening.
The event is open to men ages 18 and older. The summary does not provide further details about registration, screening hours or the location of the event.
Morehouse School of Medicine’s announcement places the screening opportunity within the HBCU community, where health-related initiatives can connect institutional resources with people who may be seeking accessible services. The free format removes a stated cost for the PSA blood test, while the haircut and incentive are included as part of the event’s offering.
Men who meet the age requirement and are interested in attending should look for additional information from Morehouse School of Medicine about how to participate. The available details confirm the date, eligibility requirement and benefits, but do not specify whether advance registration is required.
The event also highlights the role an HBCU-affiliated medical institution can play in making a health screening available to the public. By combining the PSA blood test with a haircut and financial incentive, the offering presents multiple reasons for eligible men to attend on September 26.
Why this matters: Free prostate cancer screenings give men ages 18 and older an opportunity to receive a PSA blood test without a stated cost. For the HBCU community, the Morehouse School of Medicine event connects a medical institution with an accessible screening opportunity and additional support for participants.
