The month of March is very emphatic on celebrating and honoring women. You’ve seen events, activities and programs centered on recognizing women’s contributions to the society and likewise celebrating their individuality. In conjunction with the International Women’s Month, Centuria Medical has organized an event last March 16 to promote awareness on women’s health, wellness and even finances.
As a blogger, I did not hesitate accepting the invitation because health and wellness are integral in fulfilling my passion in the long-term. Outside food and travel, I look forward to these types of events that add value to me as a person and as a woman. Recognizing the opportunities for free health check-up, I brought my family and friends with me.
