Audrey Duval: How Unity Can Spark Powerful Impact Worldwide
Audrey Duval, Executive Vice President of Global Head of Corporate Affairs at Sanofi, President of Sanofi France, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Join forces with Idrissa Gueye and World… ! Football reminds us how unity can spark powerful impact worldwide.
We’ve committed for the “Maison des Parents” in Dakar together with Foundation S and ForHope Association, a safe haven where families can find comfort, strength, and hope while standing by their children fighting cancer. It was an honor to join forces with amazing partners like GFAOP -Groupe Franco Africain d’Oncologie Pédiatrique and Sunu Dome Sunu Yitté.
Each year, 800 children are diagnosed with cancer in Senegal, yet only 200 access proper care. This home is a concrete step to close that gap to avoid significant the dropout rate level.
As part of our global Home Away From Home initiative with Childhood Cancer International, we are building on proven impact in Zambia, Malaysia, and Bolivia. In Zambia, for example, the treatment dropout rate dropped from 45% before the Home to 25% today.
Beyond numbers, Dakar’s Maison des Parents shows what we can achieve together : a lasting sanctuary of hope and resilience for children and their families.
Excited to return in October to Dakar for the inauguration and celebrate this first home in Senegal, built by and for families, to fight childhood cancer together.”
Isabelle Villadary, Head of Childhood Cancer Program at Foundation S – The Sanofi Collective, shared this post, adding:
“An excellent way for us to celebrate GOLD SEPTEMBER, the childhood cancer awareness month.
We pursue our commitment on childhood cancer in the frame of MyChildMatters with this new home in Dakar and this fabulous new partnership with ForHope Association.”
