Thank you, UNESCO for allowing us to amplify your key messaging for the ESA Commitment job, using the whiteboard animation medium for the Young People Today. Time to Act Now. platform.

Help us raise funds.

This campaign is to raise R50k - or more! - for what would have been Louise’s 50th birthday this July 31, 2021. We know that exceeding R50k is more than possible...!
We appeal to everyone who knew Louise or to those that had a Louise in their life, to donate whatever you can afford to the Cancer Association of South Africa (CANSA), via GivenGain Foundation.
The beneficiary of this fundraising, CANSA The Cancer Association of South Africa , helps every Louise, and their loved ones, out there each and every day. If caught early enough, their stories can differ greatly from lovely Louise's. This money will go to helping others screen early and prevent later-stage cancers and their consequences.
Louise loved to not miss out. She would have loved to help others not miss out on life.

It is not clear what causes ovarian cancer. In general, cancer begins when healthy cells acquire a
genetic mutation that turns normal cells into abnormal cells. Healthy cells grow and multiply at a set
rate, eventually dying at a set time. Cancer cells grow and multiply out of control, and they do not
die. The accumulating abnormal cells form a mass (tumour).
