2013 Miss Malaika Queen, Naa Oyoe Quartey has officially launched her longtime dream Foundation that seeks to offer help to children in whatever capacity and to also particularly on cancer awareness programmes.
Speaking to iBLOGGH.com, Miss Oyoe detailed that the kind gesture is also a Memorial Foundation in honour of her late Mother who passed on 5 years ago after battling with cancer and accordingly the name of the Foundation âEVOQâ is from the initials of her Mother.
Reiterating on the cancer awareness programme of EVOQ, the Ex-Queen explained that her Foundation will keenly focus on the prevalent cancer cases in Ghana such as breast, cervical, and prostate cancer among others.
âThe bigger goal is to set up a cancer research facility where there will be up to date machinery and technology for research into cancer. As well as screeningâ she said.
Miss Oyoe beaming with smiles of fulfillment and gratefulness to God added that âI said this during Malaika auditions and we are here todayâ. She further expressed the readiness of her Foundation to partner with companies that have similar concerns of EVOQ as their Corporate Social Responsibility to come on board and support the awareness of cancer.
