About the Campaign

This World Breastfeeding Month, Hegen is launching the Gift-A-Pump initiative to support breastfeeding educators who are returning to work. Through this Gift-A-Pump initiative, we aim to support the women who give so much of themselves, in the classroom and at home.

Educators play a unique role as nurturers, guiding the next generation in the classroom while caring for their own children at home. This initiative recognises their commitment and provides practical support to make breastfeeding more manageable after the return to work.

What is Hegen’s Gift-A-Pump Initiative?

Hegen’s Gift-A-Pump initiative is part of Hegen’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts to support breastfeeding educators as they return to work.

From 4 August to 30 September 2025, Hegen will gift 1,000 units of the Hegen PCTO™ Double Electric Breast Pump (SoftSqround™) to educator-mothers in Singapore.

Note: As this is a non-retail initiative and not a giveaway or contest, all Hegen PCTO™ Double Electric Breast Pump (SoftSqround™) units are for the applicant’s personal use only and are not for resale.
