Guwahati, June 26: Xiaomi India, a leading global technology company, has announced a significant partnership with the Yuvraj Singh Foundation (YouWeCan) to mark its ten-year milestone in India. This collaboration, under the ‘SwasthMahilaSwasth Bharat’ project, aims to screen 150,000 women for breast cancer over the next year across 15 states, particularly targeting under-represented and under-resourced communities. This initiative represents Xiaomi’s most extensive community impact effort in India to date.

Muralikrishnan B, President of Xiaomi India, remarked, “In our decade-long journey in India, we have evolved beyond being a technology brand by leveraging our extensive network for meaningful social change. The stark reality that a woman in India dies of breast cancer every six minutes, with 70% of cases diagnosed in advanced stages due to lack of screening, underscores the urgency of our mission. We’re proud to join forces with the Yuvraj Singh Foundation, harnessing our technological expertise to drive large-scale impact. Together, we aim to break stigmas, spread awareness, and enable early detection—potentially saving countless lives. This initiative embodies our commitment to India, extending far beyond innovation to address critical health challenges and create lasting positive change.”

Yuvraj Singh, former cricketer and founder of the Yuvraj Singh Foundation (YouWeCan), added, “The ‘SwasthMahilaSwasth Bharat’ campaign is a crucial step in our fight against breast cancer in India. Despite limited awareness and access to screening, especially in rural areas, we’re determined to make a difference. Xiaomi India’s support is instrumental in scaling our efforts to reach 150,000 women across 15 states. Their commitment is truly commendable. Together, we’re not just screening for breast cancer; we’re empowering women with knowledge and early detection tools. We are grateful to Xiaomi for their partnership in this initiative.”
