KIDZCAN – 18 May

Thanks to your generosity, as well as your families and the Peterhouse community at large, a total amount of $23,727.30 was raised for children with cancer in Zimbabwe. Many of you may not be aware, but state hospitals do not even have basic drugs like paracetamol to administer to patients, so your kind contributions go a very long way towards saving children like yourselves from cancer.

ISLAND HOSPICE TAKKIE DAY – Wednesday 21 May

Similarly, you all supported Island Hospice by donating $1for a pair of laces and / or a headband. PHB pupils raised $583 for palliative care in Zimbabwe. God bless your generosity.
