CANSA 'Art of Giving' Online Auction - Item 7

CANSA launched the 'Art of Giving' online auction in April, in order to raise much needed funds to continue our essential services to cancer patients, in spite of the lockdown to curb the spread of the COVID-19 virus. One item per week is auctioned. Today we introduce item 7, a beautiful acrylic on masonite, entitled ‘Grain Field with Poplars’ by Brian van der Spuy.

Essential Services

Cancer patients continue to stay at most of our CANSA Care Homes (Bloemfontein, Pretoria, Johannesburg, Rustenburg, Durban, Richards Bay, Port Elizabeth, George and Cape Town) with protective measures and strict infection procedures and while the public hospitals are open and receiving patients. CANSA Care Homes cater for patients receiving cancer treatment with accommodation, transport and meals. In the other provinces, plans have been made for critical patients to be admitted full time at specific hospitals or treatment centres. CANSA’s TLC Lodges for children and families affected by cancer in Pretoria and Polokwane remain operating with protective measures and support via phone and online platforms. #CANSACareHomes

We continue to assist stoma and ostomy patients with orders and deliveries that are processed once a week on Thursdays. Patients and survivors can email thavenga@cansa.org.za or stomapta@cansa.org.za or WhatsApp 078 942 9290. #CANSAstoma

Masks / headwear are also available to the public for purchase.

Our staff and volunteers continue to support patients online through our website, social media support groups and platforms during the lockdown period and have provided patients with information they need to know to lower their risk for COVID-19. A list of staff on call is available on the website should patients require counselling or advice.
