Orco Bank Hands Over “Man-Up. Check Up.” T-Shirts to SMMC Ahead of Men’s Health Screening

SINT MAARTEN — Orco Bank, through its Orco Cares Program, has handed over campaign T-shirts to St. Maarten Medical Center (SMMC) in support of the upcoming "Man-Up. Check Up." health screening event taking place Saturday, September 26, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM at SMMC.

The handover is part of the ongoing partnership between Orco Bank and SMMC to support community health initiatives, beginning with Prostate Cancer Awareness Month in September and continuing with Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October.

The campaign encourages men to take a proactive approach to their health by getting screened and staying informed — a simple reminder that prostate cancer doesn't send a warning text, and getting checked matters.

"Through Orco Cares, we want to help create opportunities for people to take that important step of getting checked and taking care of their health," said Judy King Richardson, Country Manager of Orco Bank Sint Maarten. "This T-shirt handover is another way we can stand alongside SMMC and help keep the message of early screening visible throughout our community."

Health screenings and a prostate checkup (DRE) will be available at the event. The partnership extends beyond September, with support planned for Breast Cancer Awareness Month and other patient and community initiatives through the end of the year.
