I've been touched by people in my inner circle, suffering from cancer. Some are still fighting, some have lost their battle. 

 

I started growing my hair a while ago in order to fulfill a dream of mine: I want to donate my hair to a person still battling, in order to have a wig made for them.

 

Coupled with that, I would like to donate a sum of R7000 to CHOC. R7000 is the approximate cost of one wig, and this donation, whether used for a wig or not, will change the circumstances of a child battling this horrible illness.

 

Thank you for taking the time to read this, and helping me fulfill a dream!

CHOC Childhood Cancer Foundation

Charity Default Logo

CHOC Childhood Cancer Foundation SA is the only organisation in South Africa that provides comprehensive countrywide support for children with cancer and other life-threatening blood disorders, and their families. CHOC has a head office in Johannesburg, six regional offices, two branches, and 12 accommodation facilities close to treatment centres. CHOC relies heavily on corporate sponsors, donations from groups or individuals wanting to make a difference in the lives of these little ones.

Their comprehensive support improves the welfare and quality of care of children with cancer and offers families a wide range of psychosocial services and practical support such as counselling, free accommodation, free transport and transport fund to ensure that no child abandons treatment due to the family not affording transport costs, food parcels as they recognise the financial difficulties families often face and parent to parent support groups. CHOC also plays a leading advocacy role and promotes early detection to save lives nationally.
