Sharjah Economic Development Department (SEDD) received the Pink Caravan, which is an initiative that falls under Friends of Cancer Patients' umbrella "Kashf", in order to spread awareness about the breast cancer disease among employees at the Department. Such a workshop was carried out by SEDD due to its concerns about ensuring the well-being of its female employees and to preserve their health.

It is worth mentioning that the breast cancer forms one-third of the cancer cases among women and is also considered the most common one among the ladies in the Arab countries. Such a thing is due to the lack of awareness among the Arabic ladies of the importance of maintaining the health of breast and their lack of knowledge of the steps needed to examine themselves at home. In addition, another reason for such a problem in the Arabic area is the lack of checking on the illness in early ages, whereby the cure rate comes up to 90% if the disease is discovered early.
