Girls Night Out at Nu Metro, proceeds to CANSA

Inspired by the untimely death of Patrick Swayze, Nu Metro Cinemas has decided to hold a Girls' Night Out with the theme “Dirty Dancing” in honour of Swayze's brave battle against cancer.

To assist the Cancer Association of South Africa in its work, Nu Metro will donate all proceeds to the association. “We salute the brave fight that Patrick fought as a cancer survivor. He reminds us all of the need to educate the public of the importance of early cancer detection and treatment, which is vital to prevent unnecessary deaths from this disease,” said Lucy Balona, CANSA's head of marketing and communication.

By taking part in the Girls' Night Out, ladies can assist CANSA to continue to provide essential services to meet the needs of individuals and families facing one of the most difficult experiences of their lives.

Girls' Night Out (ladies only) will take place at Nu Metro Bedfordview, Canal Walk, Clearwater Mall, Loch Logan, Menlyn Park, Montecasino, Mountain Mill, N1 City, The Pavilion, Riverside, The Glen, V&A Waterfront and Walmer Park at 8pm on Thursday, 8 October, 2009.
