Spreading Warmth This Winter – One Care Bag at a Time

Spreading Warmth This Winter – One Care Bag at a Time

Thanks to your incredible generosity, we were able to deliver 600 Winter Care Bags to patients across South Africa β€” bringing warmth, comfort, and joy to children fighting cancer.

Each care bag was thoughtfully packed with a mix of handmade and essential items, including:

  • Knitted beanies, scarves, and blankets to keep warm
  • Toiletries such as toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, lip balm and lotion
  • Colouring books and paint for creativity and fun
  • A bright yellow stress ball β€” a surprise hit, as the kids quickly turned them into mini soccer balls and filled the wards with laughter
  • Funky black glasses, which were the first thing many children excitedly put on
  • Snacks like two-minute noodles and Cup-a-Soup β€” simple comforts that go a long way during long hospital stays

A special thank you to every individual and business who donated cash to help us purchase the remaining items. Your support made it possible for us to fill every bag with care and ensure no child was left out.

These Winter Care Bags do more than just offer warmth β€” they bring hope, dignity, and a reminder that these brave children are not alone in their fight.

Thank you for continuing to stand by our little cancer warriors. Together, we’re making a difference β€” one warm heart at a time.
