“Corrida Sempre Mulher”, an initiative of the Pink October movement, brought together Quilaban employees and their families in an atmosphere of great joy and a spirit of sharing.
On 18th October, Quilaban employees and their families took part in a run supporting the fight against breast cancer, as part of the Pink October movement. The “Corrida Sempre Mulher” took place in Parque das Nações and provided a moment of unity among those present.
Throughout the morning, Quilaban participants, dressed in pink to remember the fight against cancer, had the opportunity to come together in support of all women affected by this disease. The good atmosphere among those involved made for a pleasant walk, promoting a spirit of sharing among everyone.
As a company linked to the healthcare sector, Quilaban believes in the importance of raising awareness of this cause, with awareness and encouragement of prevention being decisive factors that can make a difference in the lives of every woman.
“Being present at the Corrida Sempre Mulher makes complete sense for us and, for me, it has a special significance. It is a way of supporting a cause that touches us, of reminding everyone of the importance of prevention and of carrying this message further, to our people, their families and the community.”, states Susana Alves, Director of People and Culture.
Besides seeking to raise funds to fight breast cancer, the “Corrida Sempre Mulher” also aims to generate visibility for the cause, conveying the message that prevention and early diagnosis are fundamental in combating this disease.
