Chestertons MENA Doubles Impact This Pink October With Corporate Matching Campaign

* GUEST FEATURE - A regional update from the corporate team at Chestertons MENA.

Chestertons MENA Doubles Impact This Pink October With Corporate Matching Campaign  At Chestertons MENA, our commitment to the communities we serve goes far beyond property. This October, our team came together with a shared purpose to support Breast Cancer Awareness Month, commonly known as Pink October, and to champion a cause that touches countless lives across the region and globally.  Driven purely as a MENA team initiative, our internal Pink Day fundraising saw the local team successfully raise AED 1,000 in personal employee contributions. To amplify this collective effort, the company matched the pool dirham-for-dirham, bringing our total donation to AED 2,000.  We are proud to direct these funds to the Al Jalila Foundation and their incredible #PINKtober campaign. As a premier philanthropic organisation in the UAE, the Al Jalila Foundation does vital work to advance local biomedical research, fund early detection studies, and provide critical patient treatment support.   Our donation represents more than just a financial contribution; it is an active investment in awareness. Breast cancer remains the most prevalent cancer affecting women worldwide. Shockingly, studies highlight that the average age of diagnosis in the UAE is a decade younger than the global average.  This startling statistic drives home the ultimate truth about breast cancer: early detection saves lives. Regular screenings, self-examinations, and open conversations break down stigma and pave the way for early testing. When caught in its initial stages, the chances of successful treatment and long-term recovery increase dramatically.  We hope to inspire our industry peers, partners, and clients to make community welfare a cornerstone of their operations. We extend our deepest gratitude to every member of the Chestertons MENA family who contributed to making this campaign a success. Together, we can build a healthier, more supportive future.
