Keeping solidarity with the ‘World Cancer Day’, Lulu Group in association with Qatar Cancer Society (QCS) has conducted an awareness programme on cancer.
As part of the programme, all showroom staff of Lulu Hypermarket branches at Al Gharrafa and Al Messila wore T-Shirts carrying the message to create awareness on the importance of preventing cancer, for two weeks to coincide with the World Cancer Day, which falls on February 4 every year.
It has given an opportunity to the public to understand and spread a culture of health and an awareness on the necessity of supporting cancer patients. This year Qatar Cancer Society has organised the campaign in a comprehensive way, under theme ‘I can .. We can’.
Omar Al Twaissi, Marketing Coordinator of QCS, appreciated the efforts that Lulu Group has put forth in supporting Qatar Cancer Society in their campaign and thanked Lulu management for the initiative.
He requested the cooperation of all in the State of Qatar in their campaign to spread awareness about the disease.
He added: “Lulu Group has always been in the forefront to support such activities as part of their ongoing drive towards corporate social responsibility. ‘World Cancer Day’ is a great opportunity to spread a healthy culture especially with the increase in the number of cancer patients, which kills nearly 8.2 million people a year around the world. In addition to this, the World Cancer Day aims to achieve a set of objectives, the most important of which is to raise awareness of the disease and spread a healthy lifestyle culture, while also highlighting cancer-related effective health services readily available in Qatar”.
