The RPYC has expressed its commitment to support the PNGCF as the main sponsor of the Gala.
RPYC Chief Executive Aaron Batts and PNGCF Executive Director Priscillar Napoleon attended the launch on Thursday, April 21 at the RPYC Clubhouse.
The RPYC has previously supported the work of the PNGCF by providing its venue and services for the foundation’s community outreach workshops. The workshops have contributed to the development and extension of cancer awareness and public health programs in the country.
“The Royal Papua Yacht Club is pleased to host the gala event in July with the PNG Cancer Foundation. The RPYC would like to be involved in improving the health of the community by increasing programs and awareness events throughout the country,” Batts said.
PNGCF CEO Napoleon, while acknowledging the continued support of the RPYC, said, “It is a privilege to have the RPYC as the main sponsor of the gala dinner and for their continued support of the events. We are delighted with the continued support and partnership with the RPYC and look forward to working together on future cancer awareness initiatives.
Napoleon added that this continued partnership with RPYC also facilitates new partnerships they have entered into, such as the one with Paradise Private Hospital.
“The hospital will provide a keynote speaker for the event who will focus the evening’s dialogue in the context of the theme ‘Closing the Care Gap’, which is in line with our commitment to the World Cancer Day 2021 campaign. – 2023.”
