A Place for Self-Reflection
Women frequently confront a myriad of subtle challenges that can lead to feelings of isolation. This initiative encourages participants to engage in six interactive corners, each crafted to help them navigate their inner thoughts and emotions with gentle guidance. The hope is that the experiences offered will lighten their emotional burdens, reminding them that they are not alone in their struggles.
To further incentivize attendance, every participant will receive a complimentary "Cow Brand Red Box," a signature product from Cow Soap, renowned for its skin-friendly ingredients. In addition to the giveaways, there will also be a campaign on the official social media platform X (formerly Twitter). Participants can follow the event's official account and repost about the event for a chance to win a set of assorted Cow Soap items, with 10 lucky winners being selected at random. The promotional campaign runs from September 2 to September 30.
