What Cape Town’s pink trees represent
The Pink Trees for Pauline (PTFP) organisation, in collaboration with The Cancer Association of South Africa (CANSA) is adorning Cape Town’s trees with pink ribbons to promote and raise funds for breast cancer awareness during the month of October.
Pink Trees for Pauline, a non-profit organisation launched in 2012, was inspired by founder Carol-Ann van Jaarsveldt’s losses. Carol-Ann lost both her mother and grandmother, both named Pauline, to breast cancer. She was moved to do something that would make a difference, and thus Pink Trees for Pauline was born to raise breast cancer awareness.
