Manulife Sponsors Breast-Cancer Awareness in Hong Kong – The title of the feed item<\/p>\n
Hong Kong<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014\u00a0Once again, Manulife showed its solid support for the Hong Kong Cancer Fund\u2019s awareness-raising \u201cDress Pink Day\u201d, with many of its employees turning up to work in something pink \u2014 either a complete clothing item or an accessory \u2014 and making a donation to the charity.<\/p>\n \u201cAt Manulife, we encourage everyone to join us in being proud to be pink and wave the flag for breast-cancer awareness every October. This is a cause that has touched many of us one way or another and we are all committed to giving something back and supporting the free breast-cancer services that will continue to change lives now and in the future,\u201d remarked Helena Lee, Assistant Vice President, Corporate Communications, Manulife (International) Limited.<\/p>\n She went on to say: \u201cWe pride ourselves on having been officially designated a \u2018Caring Company\u2019 title from the Hong Kong Council of Social Service since 2002; it recognizes the caring spirit that comes so naturally to all who work here.\u201d<\/p>\n Manulife has been an active supporter of the Hong Kong Cancer Fund for 16 years and has backed the \u201cPink Revolution\u201d since 2008. The idea behind it is that wearing something in such a striking colour will be a conversation-starter that will lead people to talk about the disease, and show how determined the campaign\u2019s supporters are to the fight against it.<\/p>\n Founded in 1987, the Hong Kong Cancer Fund is one of Hong Kong\u2019s leading cancer-care organizations. The \u201cPink Revolution\u201d is its annual breast-cancer awareness and fund-raising campaign to promote the importance of early detection and raise money towards its free breast-cancer support services.<\/p>\n About Manulife (International) Limited Manulife Financial is a leading Canada-based financial services group with principal operations in Asia, Canada and the United States.
