With the help of cupcakes of hope, we are raising funds for a little boy with leukemia. I truly believe that this therapy can better his chances of survival. He recently pulled through a severe menigitis.. and after that I realized just how much he wants to live!

We are hoping to raise R150,000. Please follow the link if you can assist.

Working in a government hospital one often struggles with the question regarding the value of a life. We are even taught on the ethical principal of distributive justice. But certainly there cant be monetary value to a life. At crossroads such as these, where therapy cant be accessed due to the province or country you are born in you learn that life on planet earth does not hold equal value everywhere. Healthcare is a human right but countless variables determine the services you can access. And sometimes it feels that life is worth less than R150,000.

🚨 URGENT: Help Save Kgosi’s Life 🚨

Meet Kgosi, a bright and bubbly 4-year-old who dreams of becoming a pilot one day. He loves toy cars, flying games, and making everyone around him smile.
But behind that smile is an incredibly tough journey — Kgosi has spent nearly three years in treatment for leukemia. Just when his family hoped for a new chapter, the cancer came back.
Now, he urgently needs a life-saving chemotherapy drug called Erwinase, which isn’t available through public hospitals and costs R150,000. Without it, Kgosi’s chances of survival are heartbreakingly slim.

🎗️ As we approach Cancer Survivors Month (June), let’s rally around Kgosi and give him the fighting chance he deserves.

❤️ Every donation counts.

🔁 Every share matters.

👉 Donate today: https://cupcakesofhope.org/little-kgosi/

📢 Spread the word — tag, share, and help us reach as many people as possible.

Together, we can help Kgosi beat cancer — and one day, take to the skies. ✈️

The Pediatric Department at Robert Mangaliso Sobukwe Hospital will host a Premature Awareness Walk, this in commemoration of Wolrld Prematurity Day. The walk will start outside the KLM Block of the hospital at 07:30 on Friday, November 15th 2024.

World Prematurity Day is observed on November 17th each year. This global movement aims to raise awareness about premature birth and its impact on families. Premature birth, defined as birth before 37 weeks of gestation, can lead to significant health challenges for babies and emotional stress for families.
