Get Your Team Involved

From Abu Dhabi to Ras Al Khaimah, teams turn a date in this calendar into something people remember — and into funding for prevention, screening and research.
Power Walks
A women's network or company team walks a set distance along the Corniche, JBR or a campus track — colleagues sponsor each kilometre.
Pink Days
Wear pink at the office, sell pink breakfasts or bake sales, and match what staff raise. Simple, visible and repeatable every October.
Women's network talks
Host a lunchtime awareness session with our team for your employees — screening facts, risk assessment and where to go in your Emirate.
Corporate team challenges
Padel tournaments, desert cycles, dragon-boat heats and step challenges with a team fundraising target.
Landmark & venue lightings
Hotels, malls, towers and airports light pink for October, with a donation point for visitors.
Fundraising galas & majlis evenings
Partner-hosted dinners and majlis gatherings that raise funds and open doors to new sponsors.
