As part of their support, EMCS contributed to the project aimed at funding the reconstructive surgeries, aligning with the Foundation’s mission to bring smiles and hope to children in Colombia. This support has been instrumental in the success of the G.L.O.W campaign, which has funded approximately 60 reconstructive surgeries for children born with this condition in northern Colombia.
The SiGMA Foundation, in collaboration with Premium Care Kids plastic surgeons’ clinic, recently organized a trek through the Lost City trail in the Sierra Nevada Mountain range to raise awareness and funds for the G.L.O.W campaign. Among the participants were two representatives from EMCS, Stefano Mallia, Partner EMCS and Faye Mallia, Manager Marketing & Media, EMCS.
Stefano Mallia, shared his reflections on our journey. “Witnessing the joy of giving children a smile has been an unparalleled experience, resonating deeply with our team. Each effort invested has been rewarded tenfold by the overwhelming beauty of these moments. We are privileged to create unforgettable experiences and spread happiness. We will continue making a difference, one smile at a time.”
