On August 16, in Bac Ninh province, the Vietnam Children's Fund, the Traffic Police Department, AIA Vietnam Life Insurance Company (AIA Vietnam), and the Bac Ninh Provincial Department of Health jointly organized the Journey of Love program - a community initiative aimed at taking care of women's health and continuing the journey of giving love to children in difficult circumstances.

This is an activity within the series of events of the AIA Pink Journey program - Journey of Love 2025. With the support of the Breast Cancer Network Vietnam (BCNV), the program aims to raise awareness, promote early screening for breast cancer, and provide knowledge and financial support to women in the community, especially with the disease that has the highest incidence rate among cancers in women in Vietnam.

With the “Journey of Love” in 2025, AIA Vietnam aims to support at least 2,500 Vietnamese women to be screened, counseled and access appropriate financial solutions. Further, by 2030, the program aims to support 30,000 women nationwide.

Particularly in the “Journey of Love” in Bac Ninh province, it is expected that more than 560 women will be examined and screened for breast cancer. Of which, on the first day of the program, the Organizing Committee conducted examination and screening for breast cancer for more than 60 women.

Along with that, an in-depth discussion with medical and financial experts helps women better understand the prevention and early detection of breast cancer and how to access financial protection solutions against serious medical risks.

Sharing at the seminar, Doctor Do Thi Tuyen, Head of Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, Hoan My International Hospital Joint Stock Company, stated the current situation of the "rejuvenation" trend of breast cancer: "The number of breast cancer cases under the age of 40 is increasing. Early detection is still the most important key to cure. Community programs like this are not only timely but also very practical, and need to be expanded by businesses to protect women's health in the community."

Representative of the Vietnam Breast Cancer Network - BCNV, Mr. Pham Huu Nghi - Senior Advisor of the Vietnam Breast Cancer Network shared: "BCNV highly appreciates the initiative of AIA Vietnam in integrating health screening, professional consultation and raising awareness systematically. This is a community activity model with depth and strong influence".
