'We Care with PRIDE' Media Launch Campaign

Beginning of this year 2011, I was invited to attend a very meaningful event, the 'We Care with PRIDE' Media Launch Campaign. ' We Care with PRIDE' is a breast cancer education and awareness campaign organized by the Coronade Hotel Kuala Lumpur joins effort with Pink Ribbon Deeds (PRIDE) Foundation Malaysia. This media event was held at Kasturi Restaurant, Coronade Hotel Kuala Lumpur. 
PRIDE Foundation (Pink Ribbon Deeds) is a charity body that aims to enhance awareness efforts and improve accessibility to treatment and care of breast cancer at all levels of society. PRIDE Foundation was incorporated in 2006 as a non-profit organization governed by a Board of trustees. This incorporation is a tribute to the late Tun Endon Mahmood's courage, resilience and strength in her battle against breast cancer. PRIDE's mission is to enhance awareness efforts and improve accessibility of treatment and care of breast cancer at all levels of society. 
(Information of PRIDE Foundation was obtained from http://www.pride.org.my/about.php)

Before the launching, members of media and guests were invited for a muffin making session.
