In cooperation with the Breast Cancer Awareness Organization, Healthy Cooking Innovation (HCI) hosted a breast cancer awareness event on October 18, 2024, that brought the community together for a day of learning, unity, and fun.
The CEO, Dimple Sanchez, a nutritionist who graduated from the Food Save Me Institute in the USA, regularly offers free nutritional classes to help combat lifestyle diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, cholesterol issues, and, of course, cancer.

To show solidarity, every attendee received a pink ribbon during a special pinning ceremony. There were also balloon games, which helped foster a sense of camaraderie among everyone. The hosts took the opportunity to showcase how Saladmaster cookware can help support healthy cooking habits, which play a crucial role in cancer prevention.
