Hierdie interaktiewe veldtog nooi familie, vriende, kollegas en sosiale groepe om byeen te kom en gehaltetyd saam deur te bring met ’n lekker koppie koffie of tee, terwyl noodsaaklike fondse vir KANSA ingesamel word.  

#CuppaForCANSA, #CANSACares, #CANSACareAndSupport, #FourSeasonsForCANSA #FiveRosesSA   

Vanjaar se tema is ‘Vier Seisoene’, wat demonstreer hoe kanker, nes die seisoene, altyd teenwoordig is en nooit ’n blaaskans neem nie. KANSA bly onwrikbaar in hul ondersteuning deur die verskillende fases en seisoene wat diegene met kanker ervaar, en help individue en geliefdes om dinge baas te raak, ongeag die seisoen.  

Anita Snyders, KANSA se Nasionale Bestuurder vir Volhoubaarheid, sê, “Dis ’n wonderlike geleentheid vir jou vriende, familie, werknemers, kollegas of kliënte om betrokke te raak. Almal kan byeen kom en ’n lekker ‘Cuppa’ geniet, en terselfdertyd help om kanker te beveg en fondse in te samel sodat ons kan voortgaan om gesondheidsbewusmaking te skep, asook opvoeding-, sorg- en ondersteuningsprogramme aan te bied.”   

Deelnemers kan kies om self ’n Cuppa-geleentheid met die Vier Seisoene-tema te registreer en gaste te nooi, of hulle kan ’n Cuppa-geleentheid in hulle area bywoon.

Hierdie bekers is die perfekte geskenke vir gaste of dit kan jou gunsteling beker word om ’n lekker ‘Cuppa’ te geniet. 

Cuppa-geleenthede speel ’n uiters belangrike rol om geld in te samel wat KANSA se onskatbare dienste ondersteun, insluitend vroeë opsporing van kanker deur opvoeding, bors-, prostaat- en vel-siftingstoetse, asook die sorg en ondersteuning van pasiënte.

Engelse mediavrystelling

#CuppaForCANSA #CANSACares #CANSACareAndSupport #WithFriendsLikeTeas #FiveRosesSA

Anita Snyders, KANSA se nasionale bestuurder vir Volhoubaarheid, verduidelik, “Cuppa is een van KANSA se gewildste veldtogte, danksy die wonderlike ondersteuning wat ons vanaf die publiek, vennote en borge kry, en ons is opgewonde om gashere en -vroue uit te nooi om te registreer om ’n geleentheid te hou.”

Vanjaar se Cuppa-tema is ‘With Friends Like Teas’ wat dui op die pret, warmte, omgee en deernis wat ervaar word wanneer mens tyd saam met vriende deurbring. “Een van my gunsteling gesegdes is ‘Vriendskap gaan nie oor hoeveel tyd jy saam met iemand deurbring nie. Dit gaan oor met wie jy die lekkerste tye het.’ Ek dink die Cuppa-geleenthede som dit perfek op,” voeg Snyders by.

Die tema eggo ook die sorg en deernis van die waardevolle werk wat KANSA regoor Suid-Afrika doen. Kankerpasiënte (oorwinnaars), geliefdes en versorgers benodig ’n vriend(in) wanneer hulle met kanker gediagnoseer word of daardeur geraak word. KANSA is al vir meer as 90 jaar lank toegewyd om diegene wat kanker in die gesig staar te help met inligting en hulpbronne, daaglikse bystand en emosionele ondersteuning.

KANSA nooi gashere en-vroue uit om ’n Cuppa-geleentheid te hou. Die eerste stap is om op die Cuppa For CANSA-webtuiste te registreer of deur ’n e-pos te stuur aan adewitt@cansa.org.za. Beide individue en korporatiewe maatskappye kan as deelnemers registreer. ’n KANSA streekspersoneellid word as vennoot aangestel om met ondersteuning van die geleentheid te help.

Gashere en -vroue kan ook vir die jaarlikse Cuppa for CANSA-kompetisie inskryf vir ’n kans om fantastiese pryse te wen. Die kompetisie is oop vir registrasie vanaf Julie 2023 en Cuppa-geleenthede kan van Augustus tot Oktober 2023 gehou word. Beperkte uitgawe Cuppa for CANSA-handelsware kan gekoop word en dien as oulike geskenke vir Cuppa-gaste. Pryse sluit in geborgde Body Kind sportsbra’s deur Lisa Raleigh, lugbraaiers en die groot prys van ’n spesiale Lisa Raleigh-bounti Bungee Studio trampolien (rebounder) vir die gasheer of -vrou wat die meeste geld insamel.

KANSA is dankbaar teenoor Five Roses, die amptelike Cuppa for CANSA-vennoot wat die produksie van die beperkte uitgawe Cuppa-bekers skenk, asook tee vir elke geleentheid.

Snyders sluit af, “Ons sien daarna uit om ons gashere en -vroue en hulle gaste te verwelkom en hoop dat hulle die geleentheid net soveel soos ons sal geniet. Cuppa bring vriende op ’n spesiale manier byeen en gee aan hulle die kans om ons met die geveg teen kanker te help, deur seker te maak dat ons met sorg- en ondersteuningsprogramme en gesondheidsveldtogte kan voortgaan om tot kankerbewusmaking en die verlaging van kankerrisiko by te dra.”

Gashere en -vroue kan geleenthede onder vanjaar se tema ‘With Friends Like Teas’ hou of hulle eie tema kies. Cuppa-geleenthede kan ook gehou word om spesiale dae te vier, soos verjaarsdae of herdenkings ten bate van KANSA. Gashere en-vroue kan self besluit of hulle dekor, drankies en eetgoed by die tema wil aansluit.

Anita Snyders, CANSA’s National Sustainability Manager, explains, “Cuppa is one of CANSA’s most popular campaigns, thanks to the wonderful support that we receive from the public, event partners and sponsors, and we’re thrilled to invite hosts to register and host and event.”

This year’s Cuppa theme is ‘With Friends – Like Teas’ expressing the fun, warm, caring and compassion time spent with friends brings out. “One of my favourite sayings is ‘Friendship is not about who you spend the most time with. It’s about who you have the best time with’ and I think Cuppa events embodies this beautifully,” Snyders adds.

The theme also echoes the care and compassion of the invaluable work CANSA carries out, across South Africa. Cancer patients (Survivors), loved ones and caregivers need a friend when diagnosed or are impacted by cancer. CANSA has remained committed to connecting people facing cancer with information and resources, day-to-day help as well as emotional support for over 90 years.

CANSA invites hosts to host a Cuppa event. The first step is to register on the Cuppa For CANSA website or by emailing adewitt@cansa.org.za. Both individuals and Corporates can register as hosts. A regional CANSA staff partner is assigned as a staff partner to provide support with the event.

Hosts are eligible to enter the national Cuppa For CANSA competition to win fantastic prizes. This competition is open to register from July 2023 to host a Cuppa from August to end October and nominations close at midnight on 31 October 2023.  Limited edition, Cuppa For CANSA merchandise is available to purchase and make lovely gifts for Cuppa guests. Other prizes include sponsored Body Kind sports bras by Lisa Raleigh or air fryers and a final main prize of a Lisa Raleigh – bounti Bungee Studio Pro rebounder valued at R4 000 for the host raising the most funds.

CANSA is thankful to Five Roses, who is the official Cuppa For CANSA tea partner, who sponsor the limited edition production of Cuppa mugs and sponsoring tea for each event.

Snyders concludes, “We look forward to welcoming our hosts, and their guests and hope that they enjoy this event as much as we do. Cuppa truly brings friends together in a special way and gives them the opportunity to help us in the fight against cancer by ensuring that we can continue our care and support programmes and health campaigns to assist with cancer awareness and lowering cancer risk.”

Hosts can host events under this year’s theme ‘With Friends – Like Teas’ or choose their own theme. Cuppa’s can also be arranged to mark a special day, or occasion, such as a birthday or anniversary in aid of CANSA. It is up to the hosts, to tie in aspects such as décor, beverages, and snacks with the theme.
