Tzaneen Care Group

The group was founded in 1989 when the need arose for volunteers who were prepared to help care for cancer patients, especially the terminally ill. The Tzaneen Care Group is a registered non-profit company solely reliant on the goodwill and donations from the community.

Tzaneen Care Group got a house donated to be used for terminal cancer care. Tzaneen Cancer Care Group’s goal is to provide a safe haven for terminally ill cancer patients, with trained volunteer staff and without the hospital environment. Here our patients can spend their last days with family and friends.

Our volunteers walk the path with cancer patients from diagnosis until end-of life caring. Our volunteers go with patient to chemo sessions, home visits and even take them to town or go shopping for them.

EDUCATION - we are actively involved with educating children about early detection and how to support a loved one who has cancer.

We get no Government / International funding - our income comes only from donations and fundraising. Please help us to support cancer patients.  Please contact Melissa on 083 635 4132 or 078 621 7405
