Help make Christmas special for CANSA kids
CANSA Lowveld Care Centre is teaming up with Melusomuhle Foundation to bring children affected by cancer an exciting Christmas this year.
MBOMBELA – Kids from CANSA’s Tough Living with Cancer (TLC) programme, and Melusomuhle Foundation, will be coming together with friends and family for a fun-filled Christmas lunch on Sunday December 8.
“The children are already looking forward to the Christmas party,” Ramphosi Shawe, CANSA social worker, told Lowvelder. “The last Christmas event we had was in 2017, and this one will be bigger and better.

“The plans are slowly but surely coming together, however, we do want to involve our community in making this a memorable day for the patients. There are a few things that the public could do to help. We have a wish list from the patients – the things that they really want for Christmas,” Shawe said.
Lowvelders are urged to help buy gifts for the children on the wish list or any contribution towards purchasing the gifts will be appreciated, for example, refreshments and Christmas cake.
The gifts will be given to the patients at the festive party. Donations can be dropped off at the CANSA offices at 6 Annecke Street before December 2.
