Karachi: State Life Insurance Corporation of Pakistan (SLIC), the nation's largest and leading life and health insurance provider, announces a strategic partnership with Pink Pakistan, a non-profit and non-government organization dedicated to improving the lives of the women. This collaboration demonstrates a shared commitment to addressing the pressing issues related to women's health and well-being in Pakistan. By focusing on raising awareness about women's health and providing financial enablement through SLIC’s Sinf-e-Aahan Cancer Protection Plan, this partnership recognizes the multifaceted challenges women in Pakistan face, especially concerning healthcare and financial security.
The statistics highlighting the impact of cancer on women's mortality and the financial challenges associated with cancer treatment in developing countries like Pakistan underscore the urgency of such collaborations.

"We are thrilled to join hands with State Life Insurance Corporation of Pakistan in this important endeavor, said Zubaida Qazi, President Pink Pakistan. We are committed to improving the lives of women across the nation, and this strategic partnership with SLIC aligns perfectly with our mission. Cancer affects not only the individual diagnosed but also their families and communities. By working together, we hope to empower women with knowledge about cancer prevention, early detection, and access to the necessary healthcare resources."
