LEADING medical aid provider, Cimas Medical Aid, has donated US$13753 to the Cancer Association of Zimbabwe.
The donation is part of their wellness brand iGO.
The donation was in the form of proceeds raised from the annual iGo half marathon powered by Cimas, held in November last year in Harare and Bulawayo, where 1422 athletes took part.
Cimas chief marketing officer, Tatenda Madzikanda, said they were committed towards improving the well-being of communities they serve.
“We are now a family with the Cancer Association of Zimbabwe, and we will continue to support you.
“As promised, we are handing over to you all the proceeds that we raised (US$13,753.00) from the iGo half marathon.
“We are grateful to our key partners Pick n Pay and Zimpure, who partnered us in making the event a success,” Madzikanda said.
Cancer Association of Zimbabwe general manager, Junior Mavu, hailed Cimas for their support.
“Our heartfelt thanks goes to Cimas for supporting us and the cause because you have always done it year in, year out.
“For us to be able to do what we do, it is because of such support.
“This donation will go a long way in helping the cancer patients and their families,” said Mavu.
