The Ritz-Carlton, Doha Launches ‘Pink Ribbon Campaign’
To mark Breast Cancer Awareness Month, The Ritz-Carlton Doha has partnered with Qatar Cancer Society to launch the Pink Ribbon Campaign which will run throughout October.
The Pink Ribbon Campaign is a month-long initiative which will see a series of events and activities with the aim of educating women about breast cancer, its symptoms and the benefits of early detection.
The activities will commence on October 10th, with various services of the hotel including F&B and Spa, joining the campaign under the theme of “I Support, Love, Inspire”.
The day will begin with a Pink Pilates session held by The Ritz-Carlton Spa at 9.30am. Later that afternoon, several seminars and workshops focusing on healthy living, prevention of breast cancer, self-testing methods, early detection and testimonials from breast cancer survivors have been organised.
These will be conducted in partnership with the Ladies of Harley Qatar Chapter, Qatar Cancer Society and IAID (Academy for Dance, Music, Arts and Fitness).
Mostafa Salamen, a renowned Jordanian mountaineer and inspirational speaker, will be the keynote speaker on the day, encouraging women to strive towards their goals, including maintaining their health and empowering them to overcome their fears with determination.
The event will be enlivened by performances from IAID artists and will feature a 'Garden of Hope' where paintings by artist Matti Sirvio will be on display in the fountain courtyard of The Ritz-Carlton Doha.
A special painting created especially for the Pink Ribbon Campaign by Sirvio will be auctioned at the event and the proceeds will be donated to the Qatar Cancer Society.
Carrying the pink theme throughout the month, a series of pink programs have been organized by the various services of the hotel.
The highlight of the month will be the "Pink Zumbathon" held by The Ritz-Carlton Doha, taking place on the 19th October with registration beginning at 6.30pm in The Ritz-Carlton Spa.
A raffle will be held at the event with various prizes to be won. All proceeds collected from the tickets will be donated to the Qatar Cancer Society.

Can any one advise me - WHERE can we get Breast Cancer Screening done?
I mean which Clinic/Hospital in Qatar?
I called few private clinics but they dont have much idea on this, except they advise me to meet Gynacologist and discuss.
I wanted to do Mammography and other related tests which are part of Breast cancer screening.
Please advise. I would be grateful for your kind assistance.
