The Sponsors of Brave is calling on all South Africans to nominate their local pharmacists, nurses or doctors so that their stories can be told. News24 readers are encouraged to go to https://partners.24.com/SponsorsofBrave/index.html to submit their nomination and to stand a chance to win R5,000. The Sponsors of Brave campaign will feature 12 phenomenal stories on the heroes of healthcare. Guest judges for the campaign include Health24 editor Bevan Lakay, Carte Blanche presenter Derek Watts, Afternoon Express presenter Jeannie D and managing editor for 24.com’s Brand Studio, Andrea Firth. Two primary healthcare workers will each win an educational grant to attend an international medical conference, as well as R25,000 towards their chosen charity.
“At a time when South Africans are yearning for stories on real people making a real difference in their communities, this is the perfect platform to inspire and celebrate these unsung heroes,” says Bevan Lakay, editor of Health24.
“If bravery was a sport, South Africans have an opportunity of being world champions through the vast number of primary healthcare workers in this country making a real difference. This campaign provides a platform to honour these brave heroes,” says Sudier Ramparsad, MD of Adcock Ingram OTC division.
Andrea Firth, managing editor of Brand Studio at 24.com, adds: “We are extremely excited about this campaign, as South Africa’s leading digital news brand we have the opportunity and the reach to share these often untold stories of extraordinary kindness.”
