Floward was one of the sponsors of the Lupus Awareness Campaign in May of 2022 in collaboration with Lupus Oman and the College of Pharmacy at the National University of Science and Technology (NU). Lupus is an autoimmune disease that makes the body’s immune system attack its own tissues and organs; the symptoms of Lupus are often vague and are masked as regular symptoms of lots of common health issues. We participated in this event so that more people in Oman can familiarize themselves with the symptoms so they could seek help as soon as possible to limit its damage.
Doctors, patients, their families as well as press and other sponsors attended a lecture on Lupus Awareness Day and got know more about the disease and how to cope with it. We offered a discount code for Lupus patients and their families. We also showed support to Lupus patients by attaching their handmade crafts to flower bouquets with motivational quotes written on them.
