WOMEN WHO CARE DO IT AGAIN The organisation ‘Women Who Care’ (WWC) held their annual Breast Cancer Brunch at the end of October at the Yacht Club in Walvis Bay to raise funds for the Cancer Association of Namibia (CAN). During the brunch guests were moved by cancer survivor Adolf’s inspiring story, who shared his torment and victory, fighting three types of cancers at different times. “Adolf remarkably won his fight against glandular, oesophagus and prostate cancer. He is an extraordinarily positive man,” says Shamaine Garcia Perez, one of the WWC members. Another guest speaker at the brunch was Leonie Le Roux from CAN who gave a talk about the association, what their function is and how they operate. Le Roux also received the cheque on behalf of CAN for the amount of N$18 000, which was raised through the brunch. The guests were also entertained by two artists giving beautiful vocal performances. Women Who Care would like to thank all the sponsors and guests who attended and support the brunch in aid of raising funds for the Cancer Association of Namibia. WWC specifically said a big thank you to the brunch organisers and sponsors: Women Who Care, Alexes Taylor, Natasha Lombard, Shamaine Garcia Perez and Hildegard Bottcher as well as the local businesses: Hangana Seafood, Pick n Pay, Mpact, EBH, Namport, Tunacor, Trustco group and also the Walvis Bay prison.
