Chiron Medical Partners with the Hong Kong Christian Young Women’s Association to Launch the “1:1 Breast Health Empowerment Charity Campaign”

Encouraging Public Awareness of Personal and Others’ Health with 105 Free 3D Mammograms for Underprivileged Women

HONG KONG, April 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Chiron Medical Group is proudly launching the “1:1 Breast Health Empowerment Charity Campaign” to provide 105 free 3D mammograms and medical consultation services to underprivileged women. We invite the public to join us in caring for their own health as well as that of others. From April 1, 2025, to December 31, 2025, for every woman who undergoes a 3D mammogram or a health check at FemWell with a total cost of HKD 3,000 (after discounts), Chiron Medical will sponsor one underprivileged woman to receive free breast cancer screening. This initiative, in collaboration with the Hong Kong Christian Young Women’s Association (Hereinafter referred to as”YWCA”), will help arrange for eligible women to access these services, ensuring timely medical attention for more women.

Breast cancer is the leading cancer among women in Hong Kong, with statistics^[1] indicating that 1 in 12 women will be diagnosed in their lifetime. However, studies^[2] show that women with lower income and education levels are less likely to undergo regular breast cancer screenings. The medical community agrees that the “international gold standard” for breast screening is mammography. Early detection through imaging before tumors develop can help avoid complex treatments. Therefore, before providing free breast cancer screenings to underprivileged women, Chiron Medical will also host educational seminars to enhance their awareness and willingness to undergo examinations.

Mr. Wallace Wong, CEO of Chiron Medical Group, stated, “Chiron Medical is committed to providing comprehensive and appropriate medical services, offering patients an all-round solution for prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and ongoing management of various health conditions. Last year, we established FemWell, focusing on women’s health with a multidisciplinary team of female experts. This year, we continue to care for women and hope the public can engage in self-care and extend that care to others. I sincerely thank YWCA for assisting with the registration and selection of women in need for the 3D mammogram screenings, enabling early detection of health issues for timely treatment. Looking ahead, we will continue to explore partnerships with like-minded organizations and businesses to promote holistic women’s health.”

Ms. Woo Yuen Ling, Service Director (Employment Services & YWCA Movement), remarked that “YWCA upholds the mission of ‘Cultivating Life’ to impact lives; this year marks the 105th anniversary of the Association, and we are honored to partner with Chiron Medical Group to promote this community charity program for the benefit of the community. Through our ‘What’s Your Concern’ breast health community promotion program, we provide breast health seminars for women and arrange free 3D mammography screenings for eligible participants. This is an important step in raising awareness about breast health in society and removing barriers that prevent women from seeking screenings due to financial difficulties, allowing more women to receive timely and necessary examinations. We look forward to making more women feel cared for and supported through this program.”

This charity campaign is managed by FemWell, a female brand under Chiron Medical Group, which will provide the 3D mammogram services and medical consultations. Beneficiary women can receive services at FemWell, located on the 2nd floor of the Podium Plaza, 5 Hanoi Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon. This women’s health centre, established last year, features a calming interior design, private changing rooms, a women-only waiting area, examination rooms, and imaging diagnostic rooms, ensuring a high level of privacy and a comfortable experience throughout the examination or consultation process.
