Thank you to all our Sponsors!!

It is really amazing to see how generous people can really be! There have been a few exciting developments recently about our cancer fighting journey which I would love to share with you.


A BIG thanks to Anatomic for kindly sponsoring us cycling kit and for arranging the design which was inspired by Lize-Mari herself! We asked her what she would like to appear on our cycling kit and she said 'sunflowers'! See below the great design which Anatomic put together for us. We will definitely be assured of being spotted on the road. Should anyone be interested in buying a cycling shirt to support our cancer fighting journey, then please let us know!
Another highlight has to be the amount of money we've raised so far for Lize-Mari's treatment - R20,720!!! This week we had 3 large sponsorship amounts and we would love to mention them and then of course, challenge other corporates and individuals to beat this !
  • Thank you to WSP Group for their generous donation of R5,000. For more information on this great company, visit http://www.wspgroup.co.za/

  • Thank you to Kerry-Lyn Honey for holding a 'Honey for the Soul Art Exhibition' where artwork was auctioned to raise money for Lize-Mari. We are happy to announce that R5,500 worth of artwork was sold which will be donated to the Lize-Marie Trust.

  • Thank you also to the Intsaka Group for kindly donating R1,500

Another exciting development is that we emailed the Lance Armstrong Foundation (LAF), LIVESTRONG, to tell them about our initiative. To be honest, we weren't really expecting to get a reply since they must receive thousands of emails from people and families struggling with cancer. But, to our surprise, they replied to us! We are now in the process of liaising with them to see if we can partner with them - so watch this space!

We have been chatting with Linda, Lize-Mari's mom about her health and the upcoming trip to France. We hope to have an update for you soon as details on her treatment in France are being finalised.
