Apparel Group’s renowned intimate apparel brand, la Vie en Rose, takes a stand in the fight against breast cancer with an inspiring initiative for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
This effort, which highlights the brand’s dedication to raising awareness and supporting women across the UAE, culminates in a significant donation to Friends of Cancer Patients (FOCP).
This contribution is a strong statement of la Vie en Rose’s involvement in community health and wellness, particularly in supporting those affected by breast cancer.
During the month of October, recognized globally as Breast Cancer Awareness Month, la Vie en Rose dedicated 5% of its sales from a specially curated line of mastectomy bras towards the cause. This strategic initiative, pioneered by the Apparel Group, demonstrates the company’s dedication to corporate social responsibility and its proactive approach in addressing key health issues.
Neeraj Teckchandani, CEO of Apparel Group, comments on the initiative, “Our mission went beyond raising funds; it was about awakening a collective consciousness towards breast cancer. By channeling a portion of our sales from la Vie en Rose to FOCP, we aim to contribute to a brighter future where support and awareness go hand in hand with combating this disease.”
The initiative saw la Vie en Rose’s stores across the UAE become hubs for awareness, sharing information and showing solidarity with women battling cancer. la Vie en Rose’s contribution extends to their carefully designed Muse™ bras, which cater specifically to the needs of post-mastectomy women and those with heightened sensitivity following cancer treatments.
“This initiative is a cornerstone of our ethos at la Vie en Rose and the Apparel Group – to not only be leaders in the retail sector but to also make meaningful impacts in our communities. Supporting Friends of Cancer Patients with this donation is part of our broader commitment to health, wellness, and the empowerment of women,” adds Teckchandani.
la Vie en Rose’s pledge to support highlights the brand’s deep-rooted belief in giving back to the society that sustains it. This initiative is one of many that Apparel Group champions as part of its social responsibility programs, striving to make a difference in the lives of people and nurturing a culture of care and support within the community.
