Hospice Malta is encouraging local businesses as well as the community to donate €1 for breast cancer patients during Pink October by participating in the Hospice Malta Pink October initiative

Hairdressers, Beauticians, Nail technicians and massage therapists are being encouraged to participate in Hospice Malta’s breast cancer awareness campaign by donating €1 for every customer that they serve from their store throughout October. All such businesses interested in supporting Hospice Malta throughout the month of October can reach out to Hospice to receive the campaign details by sending an email on cro@hospicemalta.org or calling on 21440085.

Every year, in October, the world comes together to show its support for all those battling against breast cancer. While we offer support to breast cancer patients all year round, in the month of October we work hard on raising awareness, campaigning, and fundraising to continue offering free palliative care to all those who need it on our islands.

Donations will allow Hospice Malta to continue helping patients and their families by allowing them to provide their range of services including Home Care, Daily Therapy Unit, Hydrotherapy, Bereavement Support, Care Assistant Services, Loan of Specialised Equipment, After Hours On-Call services and Patient Transport as well as help in the building of the new Hospice complex – St. Michael Hospice is expected to open its doors in late 2022.

Founded in 1989, Hospice Malta’s primary role is to provide and promote palliative care services to patients suffering from cancer, motor-neuron disease, cardiac, respiratory, renal, and liver diseases.
