Cancer Care Centre thank community for its support

Unable to hold their annual fundraisers in 2020 or 2021, the Tzaneen Care Group says they are proud to say that the community continued to supported them and has helped to keep their doors open.

“In 2020 the Tzaneen Care Group was able to donate hygiene packs to the homeless that were housed at Jetty 3.

We provided grocery hampers to many local families as well as the children at the Polokwane Oncology Unit.

We were able to distribute sanitary pads to girls in certain rural schools.

We were able to cover the cost of twelve patients who were admitted to the Tzaneen Cancer Care Centre.
