In a bid to fulfill its commitment to community service, Wasl, a prominent real estate developer in the UAE, has partnered with Pink Caravan, a UAE breast cancer initiative that falls under Friends of Cancer Patients’ umbrella, to raise awareness about breast cancer and offer free clinical examinations and mammograms to female tenants in its communities.
The event, held at the Q Building in Al Qusais, witnessed an overwhelming response with over 100 women participating in the screening at the Pink Caravan mobile clinic.
Pink Caravan, a UAE-based breast cancer initiative, has been working tirelessly to promote early detection of breast cancer and educate communities about the importance of regular screenings. This collaboration with Wasl underscores the developer’s dedication to serving its communities beyond just building homes.
Wasl has a long-standing tradition of partnering with local organizations and government entities to create and support various programs and initiatives that address important local causes. These initiatives range from education and skills development to fitness programs and health drives.
The breast cancer awareness event at the Q Building in Al Qusais was a resounding success, with women from Wasl’s communities turning up in large numbers to take advantage of the free clinical examinations and mammograms offered by Pink Caravan. The mobile clinic provided a convenient and accessible venue for women to undergo these critical screenings, ultimately contributing to early detection and prevention of breast cancer.
Breast cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths among women worldwide. Early detection through regular screenings can significantly improve the chances of successful treatment and survival. Wasl’s collaboration with Pink Caravan serves as an example of corporate social responsibility in action, highlighting the importance of community engagement and health awareness.
