Watsons Malaysia and L'Oréal have teamed up to celebrate International Women’s Day (IWD) by giving a helping hand to nine incredible pharmacy students from Universiti Malaya. This awesome collaboration is happening through the Universiti Malaya Community Engagement Centre (UMCares), and it’s all about supporting our future female pharmacists! The launch event was buzzing with excitement as students, faculty, and representatives from Watsons and L'Oréal came together on campus. Everyone was there to cheer on these amazing young women who are about to receive academic sponsorships. Can you feel the good vibes?
These sponsorships will ease the financial load for the students, allowing them to focus on their studies and thrive in their pharmacy courses. Each recipient will get a scholarship that covers tuition fees, textbooks, and other essentials, giving them the chance to really dive into their education. One of the scholarship recipients, Aisha, couldn’t hide her excitement: “I’m so honored to be part of this! This support not only lightens my financial load but also pushes me to work even harder. I can’t wait to make a difference in my community as a pharmacist!” During the event, reps from Watsons and L'Oréal shared inspiring messages about the importance of empowering women in healthcare. With women making up a big part of the pharmacy workforce, this collaboration highlights how essential they are in shaping the future of healthcare in Malaysia.
This sponsorship is not just about handing out money; it’s about lifting these women up and showing them that their dreams matter. Watsons and L'Oréal are committed to giving back to the community and supporting the next generation of leaders. By investing in these nine students, they’re not just helping them chase their dreams but also encouraging them to be role models for others. As the day wrapped up, it was clear that the Watsons and L'Oréal IWD Academic Sponsorship is a huge step towards women’s empowerment and education. This partnership sets a great example of how businesses and educational institutions can come together to create real change.
Here’s the list of students from the Faculty of Pharmacy who received the Watsons IWD Academic Sponsorship:
With this support, the future looks super bright for these aspiring pharmacists. Watsons and L'Oréal are paving the way for a new wave of women who will make waves in the pharmacy field, contribute to healthcare, and inspire others to go after their dreams. So, here’s to these nine amazing students! With scholarships and a whole community backing them up, they’re ready to take on the world and make a difference!
