Cancer charities & Hospice

 


Angels without Wings offers assistance to families who have children with terminal illnesses or life altering conditions.

Dance for a Cure is a volunteer based organisation committed to fighting the battle against Cervical Cancer in South Africa. We raise money through the art form of Dance and use the funds raised to vaccinate girls against cervical cancer in areas where there is no awareness of the disease and where the vaccine is unaffordable and the risk probably the greatest. We believe that through awareness, education and prevention we can make a significant difference. Cervical cancer is the most common cause of cancer death in woman in South Africa! 

South African cancer patients not on medical aid can apply for financial support from the Moments in Time Trust – a project which raises money through the sale of a calendar and diary featuring cancer patients and their stories.
