This last Saturday, Radisson Blu Hotel, Durban Umhlanga, in proud partnership with The Estee Lauder Group of Companies, hosted a Breast Cancer Awareness Luncheon that united our community for a cause close to our hearts. Held in the elegant Conference Hall on level 4 of the hotel, this meaningful event aimed to raise awareness, support, and funds for breast cancer, celebrating the strength and courage of those affected.
Guests enjoyed a delicious 3-course buffet while being inspired by the powerful messages shared by our distinguished speakers, including Nomazibulo Tshanga, Noeline Rajbally, and Prishantha Pillay from Estee Lauder, with MC Lenore Goss Matjie guiding the day. The ambiance was made even more special with Sorbet offering guests relaxing express hand and shoulder massages, while Futurelife demonstrated how to create healthy smoothies, and Estee Lauder provided touch-ups to our lovely guests.
We were thrilled to provide exclusive goodie bags, generously sponsored by esteemed brands such as Dove, Futurelife, Oh So Heavenly, Hollard, Lelive, and Sorbet. Exciting prizes, including a “best dressed” prize—a stunning Durban flying dress photoshoot—were awarded, celebrating the spirit of the event. Other prizes included luxurious items sponsored by Estee Lauder, Moroccan Oil, Jockey, Sphinx Beauty, Aldo, and Radmed, who graciously sponsored a mammogram for one lucky lady.
A live auction featured amazing items such as stays at Wild Coast and Brahman Hills, along with products from Jockey and an Estee Lauder gift set. Thanks to the generosity of our guests, we raised an impressive R25,000 for The Pink Drive.
Fara Hamid, Marketing Manager of Radisson Blu Hotel Durban Umhlanga, expressed her gratitude for the event’s success, saying, “This luncheon was a beautiful reminder of the strength of community. Together, we can make a real difference in the fight against breast cancer, and we are proud to stand with our partners and guests in this important cause.”
This luncheon was not just an event; it was a powerful testament to community spirit, generosity, and solidarity in the fight against breast cancer. We are incredibly proud to be associated with our partners and grateful to all who joined us in making this event such a success. Together, we are making a meaningful impact and supporting those who need it most.
