What your 67 minutes will achieve

We ask for a donation of R67 per person and all proceeds will go to CHOC. http://www.choc.org.za

Every participant will receive a beaufiful KEEMO soft toy. KEEMO is the new mascot that was developed to act as a companion and positive role model for youngsters who have to endure the hardship of

chemotherapy.

Bring a glass or can of whatever you wish to drink for a toast to the longevity of our most valuable national treasure after your 67 minutes of exertion!

Please drop us a line if you plan to make it to this gathering so that we can plan accordingly. If we can get enough people committed we can get the TV cameras and press along. So as well as making you famous we can get much needed publicity for CHOC.
