KLOOF’S Green Mile along Old Main Road has taken on a new look, with trees wrapped in pink fabric as part of a community initiative aimed at raising awareness and honouring those whose lives have been touched by cancer.

The initiative is a collaboration between Pam Golding Properties Highway and The Kloof Project. Its aim is to bring community members together to show support, remembrance and hope.

Community members were invited to join forces, dressed in pink, to wrap trees along the road in pink fabric. “The initiative is about honouring someone we love, supporting someone fighting cancer, and remembering someone we have lost,” said Kloof Project’s Kerry Harper.

The campaign added another heartfelt element, a Tree of Hope and Remembrance, located outside the Pam Golding Properties Highway offices.

“The tree provides a quiet and welcoming space for members of the community to pause, reflect and remember someone special. Visitors are invited to write a name or personal message on a stone and place it beneath the tree,” said Harper

Pam Golding Properties Highway and The Kloof Project expressed their gratitude to everyone who contributed to bringing the initiative to life.

“We thank everyone who helped make this initiative possible and invite the wider Highway community to visit the tree and add their own message of hope or remembrance,” said Pam Golding’s Alwina Muggeridge.
