#ForHOPE: “MY 100 FOR HOSPICE” – 17 September 2022

Sport will in 2022 present the #ForHope Community Day once a month at the Voortrekker Monument. The aim of this initiative is to create opportunities during which families, friends and the broader community can build relationships, spend quality time together and at the same time maintain a healthy lifestyle in the beautiful vicinity in which the Voortrekker Monument is located.     

At these events AfriForum Sport also intends on gathering funds for the maintenance of routes at the Voortrekker Monument, as well as supporting other projects/initiatives that also empower communities and/or individuals by means of sport.   

THE AIM OF “MY 100 FOR HOSPICE”

Sungardens Hospice offers specialised, palliative care to patients with progressive, far advanced and incurable diseases.

The idea of a fun-run family event originated from the need to celebrate life, and to draw attention to embracing a healthy lifestyle.

The event also serves to inform the public about the services and benefits of palliative care and to create awareness of life-threatening diseases such as cancer, HIV and Aids, neurological illnesses and other end-stage organ failures.  

The Sungardens Hospice also offers bereavement services and this event gives an opportunity to those who would like to run or walk in memory of a loved one, or to support  someone who are living with a life-threatening illness. Participants may express their love and support in any manner, for example a named T-shirt, cap or banner. 

The name “My 100 for Hospice” means that every participant will be contributing R100 in aid of a very good cause by supporting those who live with life-threatening illnesses.
