MANULIFE PINKTOBER-ED FOR A GOOD CAUSE!
KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 16 (Bernama) -- In conjunction with Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the Global Women’s Alliance (GWA) of Manulife Malaysia organised a Breast Cancer Awareness Day on 9 October 2019.
In the run up to the day, Manulife set up an online donation portal that raised RM10,662. To top it off, Manulife employees donated an additional RM1,385 on the day. All funds went to the Breast Cancer Welfare Association Malaysia (BCWA), a tax-exempted organisation providing peer support for women with breast cancer. Besides the fundraising, the company arranged free breast examination and talks about breast health.
“Breast Cancer Awareness Day was held to increase awareness on Breast Cancer as it is still the most common cancer among women, and to educate staff on breast health and early prevention. We are immensely proud of all our staff who contributed to the sum donated to BCWA.” said GWA chairman, Rosalynn Lai.
