Mercedes-Benz Egypt Strengthens Commitment to Baheya Foundation’s Fight Against Breast Cancer
Mercedes-Benz Egypt has reaffirmed its commitment to the Baheya Foundation by renewing the cooperation protocol, bolstering the fight against breast cancer. This renewal underscores the company’s support for the foundation’s charitable activities, which emphasize early detection and treatment of breast cancer. Furthermore, Mercedes-Benz Egypt is playing a crucial role in the completion of a new breast cancer treatment facility in Sheikh Zayed City, Giza.
The first phase of the new hospital, Phase 1A, has been completed, featuring two fully functional units dedicated to early detection and treatment. Enhancements include the inauguration of the hospital’s back entrance and the transformation of the emergency reception area into various specialized clinics, including those for surgical procedures.
Upon completion, the second phase of the hospital is set to introduce a multitude of services and facilities. These will encompass the hospital’s main entrance, an administrative sector to streamline operational processes, state-of-the-art laboratories, pathology services, 19 patient rooms, cutting-edge operating theatres, CT scan departments, and a parking facility, as well as essential service rooms dedicated to electrical and mechanical maintenance.
Since its inception in 2015, the Baheya Foundation has welcomed over 200,000 women, providing them with early screening services and comprehensive care for diagnosis, detection, and treatment of tumors.
Mercedes-Benz initially partnered with the Baheya Foundation in 2021, aiming to support the valiant women battling breast cancer and to elevate community awareness about the significance of early detection. Moreover, Mercedes-Benz Egypt will continue to endorse the foundation’s initiatives throughout the year.
For Mercedes-Benz, social responsibility is a core value and priority, aligning with the Baheya Foundation’s efforts to deliver healthcare initiatives. The brand’s concept of sustainability involves creating enduring, beneficial values for all stakeholders, with the overarching goal of enriching society as a whole.
