Calamatta Cuschieri Group is once again joining the Pink October movement in the fight against breast cancer. Throughout the month of October, the company will be arranging a number of fundraising events to help this cause. All funds raised will be donated to Action for Breast Cancer and the Marigold Foundation.

The group’s CEO, Alan Cuschieri, said: “Calamatta Cuschieri is committed to giving back to the community and helping join in the battle against one of the worst illnesses. As the group continues to grow, we continue to increase our efforts to improve people’s lives through our contributions and activities.”

Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer globally and one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths in women aged over 30 in Malta. However, it is also prevalent in men. If breast cancer is detected early enough, it can be successfully treated. By raising awareness, the Pink October movement hopes to encourage more women to get more frequent screening, enhancing their chance at successful treatment.

This year the group’s events range from Dress-Down Friday’s anda raffle to a heated bake-off and team competitions, in which staff participate and donations are collected. Employees are encouraged to take part in the Pink October initiative by donating €10 and attending the events.

In addition to Pink October, Calamatta Cuschieri Group is taking part in a range of other events throughout the year, all for deserving causes such as this one. In recent years, the company set up the CC Cancer Foundation and organised a series of annual events, such as Walk for Cancer, Blood Donation Drive, Investing in Nature, as well as collaborations with ALS Malta.
