Pink October 2026: Efor teams show their support

Throughout October, our employees came together to support Pink October, the annual campaign dedicated to raising awareness of breast cancer screening and supporting research. From charity runs and workplace initiatives to prevention webinars, our teams across France and Belgium took part in a range of activities to make this collective commitment a reality.

Charity runs across France and Belgium

Once again this year, our employees laced up their running shoes to take part in several sporting events in support of the fight against breast cancer. From La Strasbourgeoise in Strasbourg and Les Mulhousiennes in Mulhouse to La Seincère in Montpellier, Marseille en Rose in Marseille and La Scintillante in Lyon, organised by the Centre Léon Bérard, our teams showed their support across France. In Belgium, our employees also took part in Race for the Cure, organised by Think Pink.

Beyond the sporting challenge and the enjoyment of sharing these moments together, every participation helps support the organisations and initiatives that provide assistance to women affected by the disease and fund research. These events are a great opportunity to turn our teams’ energy into meaningful action.

Bringing a touch of pink to the workplace

The commitment didn’t stop at the starting line. At our headquarters in Champagne-au-Mont-d’Or, employees also showed their support by wearing pink or displaying the pink ribbon, the symbol of Pink October, helping raise awareness and keep the initiative alive throughout the month.

Simple gestures that help bring greater visibility to the cause and encourage everyone to learn more and talk openly about screening.

Understanding better to prevent better

Because raising awareness also means providing information, our employees had the opportunity to attend prevention webinars dedicated to breast cancer. These sessions provided insights into the disease, the importance of early detection and the steps everyone can take to help protect their health.

When detected early, breast cancer can be treated more effectively, with better chances of recovery. Sharing information, raising awareness and encouraging open conversations are therefore essential to improving prevention.

A commitment that lasts all year round

While October is an important time to shine a spotlight on this cause, Efor’s commitment extends well beyond the month itself. The Group is a partner of the Centre Léon Bérard, a leading cancer research and treatment centre in France and Europe, and supports cancer research throughout the year.

This ongoing commitment allows us to carry the momentum of Pink October beyond the campaign itself and contribute, in our own way, to advances in research and the fight against cancer.

Thank you to everyone!

A big thank you to all our employees who got involved throughout this month dedicated to awareness and prevention.
