What started as a proactive dream to establish local Breast Clinics that provide access for Namibians without medical insurance 4 years ago, became a beautiful reality of hope that impacts many lives.
Two medical interns at the time, Dr Amore Pretorius and Dr Warren van Wyk, spearheaded the idea at Onandjokwe Intermediate Hospital, and today "Team OkWe" is one of the strongest partners in the "Namibia Breast Clinic Programme" - a collaborative initiative between Cancer Association of Namibia and Ministry of Health and Social Services-Namibia.

Dit is amper November en tyd vir ons jaarlikse EGK Movember (Snorvember) Uitdaging met lekker pryse vir die top 3 snorre. Op die 1ste November skeer die mans hulle gesiggies baba glad en begin dan om die beste snor moontlik te groei tot die einde van November. Op die 28ste November stuur hulle vir ons ‘n foto van hulle snorre en dan kies ons die wenners. *Dit is om bewustheid en fondse vir mansgesondheid in te samel - spesifiek prostaatkanker, testikulêre kanker, geestesgesondheid en selfmoordvoorkoming.* As jy d**k jou bolip is te klein vir daardie groot manlike snor van jou of jou snor lyk soos 'n potlood strepie op jou bolip dan moet jy asb., deelneem. Onthou, die doel van die uitdaging is baie groter as jou vermoë om 'n groot snor te kan groei. Kom skep saam met ons bewustheid en fondse vir hierdie siekte wat daagliks ons mans se lewens dreig.
