As we highlight something important and close to Seth
[permalink]
Regular readers will be aware that 2oceansvibe is very limited when it comes to appeals to the readers for help. We do receive many charitable requests for help and, whilst we are more than happy to email the information around to others who might be able to help, we are sadly unable to publish each and every one. If we did then there would, quite literally, be no 2oceansvibe.
Because one cannot help everyone in need, requests like these are the ones close to my heart and family. I have always made mention that if you also struggle to choose who to give to and who to help, going for those requested on 2oceansvibe will keep you in good stead with the Gods of karma and you won't have to feel bad that you don't drive through Cape Town spending R350 a day on street children.
That said,
I wish to highlight the plight of Cassie Buchanan, a little girl and member of a family who are very close to my heart. Cassie has been diagnosed with something called Aplastic Anemia, a blood disorder which, like many others, requires a bone marrow transplant. As with many of these cases, a matching (usually very rare) donor is required. This is the situation in the case of Cassie Buchanan.
Through registering and testing,
The Sunflower Fund deals with increasing the number of matches on the Bone Marrow Registry for these kind of medical processes.

At about R1,000 a test and with such a small chance of finding a match, one can understand that this is not your standard medical operation fundraiser. Any assistance we can give to contribute to The Sunflower Fund's cause would therefore be greatly appreciated - no matter how small the amount.
The Sunflower Fund's banking details are:

Thanks team, it means a lot.
