From
communication to finding sponsors and designing t-shirts, the Sophia Antipolis
branch of the HOPE student association is actively involved in the Pink October
campaign with Centre Hospitalier d'Antibes workers. From 1 October, SKEMA
students are invited to register on the Octobre Rose Connecté website to record the distance covered during
their daily run. “The students must choose a team and visit the website to log
the time spent exercising each day.
This time will then be converted into
kilometres. They can walk or run,” explained Adele Camillieri, a student
in the Master in Management (PGE) programme on the Sophia Antipolis campus.
Through this event, HOPE wishes to inform students about breast cancer, and also
encourage them to exercise regularly. The top performers will be awarded prizes
donated by the organisers.
Note: There is a fee of one euro per person to participate.
