Stanbic Bank bumped its yearly gift to Zimbabwe's Cancer Association from 20,000 bucks to 25,000, marking twelve straight years of backing the nonprofit. Tariro Memo from the bank's marketing team said the extra cash aims to help patients deal with expensive treatments and sketchy access to medical facilities across the country.
The Cancer Association started back in the sixties when survivors and volunteers teamed up to spread awareness and counsel families dealing with the disease. Officials from both groups talked about wanting to expand services into rural spots where people struggle to get proper care, and they emphasized the partnership's focus on saving lives through better education and research-backed interventions.
