The project, a joint effort between AUC, its student body, celebrities, other prominent individuals, as well as a number of corporate sponsors, aims at the donation of a complete, turn-key unit for the early detection of breast cancer benefiting underprivileged women of Qalioubeya governorate.
AUC, which hosted a highly successful ''Concert of Hope'' earlier this year has now planned the second phase of this fund-raising campaign, a festival-type event titled ''Festival of Hope''.
Mr. Karim Beshara, Chief Executive Officer of LINKdotNET, commented: "we are delighted at this opportunity to play a role in this supremely important project. Our company is actively involved in various social endeavors but this particular initiative is a true embodiment of good corporate citizenship."
He further added: "We fully appreciate the plight of Egypt's underprivileged and look forward to help as best we can in ending the threat of this disease affecting so many women''.
LINKdotNET is a leader of internet service and electronic content in Egypt and the Middle East.
