Our unique ‘pink edition’ this weekend endorses our support of the Pink Drive initiative as Greyville Racecourse is coated in a tidal wave of pink this Friday evening.
Hollywoodbets have sponsored the ninth race on the evening, the Hollywoodbets FM 86 Handicap, in support of South Africa´s best-loved Breast Cancer Community Carer.
PinkDrive powers South Africa´s first and only mobile Mammography and Educational Units, driving home the fact that ‘Early Detection Saves Lives’.
The vision is to provide a free women’s health service to the medically uninsured in South Africa and to advocate for change in the cancer space – even if only through one truck and in one province at a time.
PinkDrive currently runs three ‘Pink’ mobile breast check units, as well as six educational cars. All units travel to semi-urban and urban areas around South Africa with the aim of enabling numerous disadvantaged communities access to diagnostic mammography screening, education, physical examinations and how to do breast self-examination.
