This year's initiative offers a limited-edition designer T-shirt from David Tlale, who recently returned from a triumphant showing at New York Fashion Week, has donated his services to conceptualise the T-shirt. For the design, Tlale has used a simple, elegant and striking motif comprising the pink breast cancer ribbon interwoven with subtle floral elements.
Last year in the region of R50 000 was raised for breast cancer awareness projects and this year AFI is hoping to exceed that sum. All proceeds from T-shirt sales will be donated to three charities doing important work in the areas of education and medical treatment for breast cancer.
“Breast cancer and cervical cancer education is important to curb unnecessary suffering and loss of life,” says Dr Precious Moloi-Motsepe chairperson of AFI. “Every woman should take charge of her own health and should have access to information, screening and treatment.”
There are only 900 limited-edition T-shirts available at R188 each, including VAT (excl. postage), so here is a chance to own an exclusive designer T-shirt and contribute to a worthy cause. To place an order or make an enquiry, email or phone +27 (0) 11 269 6960. T-shirts can also be collected from AFI's Johannesburg offices.
