Micro Charity Company Supports Breast Cancer Awareness

Breast cancer awareness in Jordan has received a major boost from a micro charity known as The Jordan Micro Credit Company, also known as Tamweelcom. Created from royal roots, the Jordan Breast Cancer Program was designed and implemented by the King Hussein Cancer Foundation and Center. Early detection in breast cancer is critical to successful treatment of the disease. To that end, Tamweelcom and the Jordan Breast Cancer Program are teaming up to increase Jordanian public awareness of the need for early detection.

Jordan Micro Credit Company – a Micro Charity Increasing Social Responsibility

Along with breast cancer awareness, the Jordan Breast Cancer Program works to educate women on individual health rights and personal responsibilities. This particular agreement also focuses on education and has been designed as a “train the trainer” system. Selected female Tamweelcom clients will be trained on awareness and early detection techniques. Once trained, they will be able to launch annual campaigns, taking the information across women’s groups in their own communities. To further ensure the Breast Cancer Program’s success, Tamweelcom facilities located throughout Jordan will be available for use with the program.

Jordan Micro Charity Profile

A non-profit company, Tamweelcom fills a broad social responsibility agenda; they feel this agreement adds to that mission. Over the 11 years since its inception, Tamweelcom has financed 167,000 projects – over 93% of them have been for women. The organization’s primary mission is eradicating poverty and unemployment.

Microgiving welcomes the efforts of the Jordan Micro Credit Company to increase international breast cancer awareness. Like Tamweelcom, Microgiving’s primary mission is to impact poverty and make a sustainable difference across communities through micro charity.
