Become Sunflower Fund’s ray of hope

If you are looking to compete in the Amashova or the Comrades Marathon this year, consider signing up and show your support for The Sunflower Fund.

THE Sunflower Fund in KZN appeals to Highway athletes who will compete in the Comrades Marathon or Amashova Durban Classic Race in 2019 to champion its Miles4Hope fund-raising and awareness campaign.

Miles4Hope participants are equipped with the tools to help them approach their personal and work databases to sponsor them financially per mile (or kilometre) covered. No contribution is too small.

All funds raised from the event will enable The Sunflower Fund to create awareness and education about blood stem cell donation, recruit more blood stem cell donors, grow the patient support fund and maintain a registry of committed donors.

This means greater hope of life for patients who are diagnosed with life-threatening blood diseases and who are in need of a blood stem cell transplant from a matching unrelated donor.

To join the Miles4Hope 2019 campaign, contact Tanith King on 031 2661148 or email tanith@sunflowerfund.org.za.
