Support a Shavathon for CANSA fundraiser
Colours speak louder than words, calling on supporters to make a bold expression through colour
Usually a mass-participation event attracting hundreds of supporters who shave or spray their hair for a worthy cause, this year’s CANSA Shavathon will take on a different approach.
A number of smaller events will be the order of the day, adhering to social distancing and observing all Covid-19 protocols.
The annual event, which is one of the biggest fundraisers for the organisation, will see community members show their support under strict safety regulations to deter the spread of the coronavirus.
CANSA has continued with its mandate to care for cancer patients and loved ones battling the dreaded disease despite the pandemic, and will host the CANSA 2021 Shavathon under the theme, Colours speak louder than words, calling on supporters to make a bold expression through colour.
Donations and sponsorship towards any of the events will be highly appreciated. As well as adhering to social distancing, CANSA staff and Shavathon volunteers will ensure a limited number of individuals present at any CANSA Shavathon station. Malls and shopping centres participating this year:
