Seema Naidoo, a housewife and mother, spoke about her battle with \ncancer and the agony of loneliness she suffered when her husband of many\n years deserted her at a time when she needed him most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThough we\u2019re now divorced, I do not harbour any ill feeling and I have moved on with my life. I am happy God gave me a signal to start the Hope to Heal Foundation that will seek to heal and empower all victims of the disease and other social ills in our communities,\u201d Naidoo said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She was speaking at the launch of the foundation, a non-profit \norganisation that will undertake community work with people of all walks\n of life, at the Pyramid Conference Centre and Hotel in Eloff Street \nExtension in the Johannesburg CBD on the night of 1 February.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs part of my first project of the foundation, I have already \nundertaken and committed myself to renovate two children\u2019s wards in two \nlocal Johannesburg hospitals and will soon be hosting a golf day in an \neffort to raise funds for this noble cause,\u201d she said, urging her \naudience at the launch to come to the party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cPartner with us for a good cause to help heal our land, heal our people and communities and empower the foundation to reach its potential and realise its dreams, my dreams and the godsend mission of hope.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alongside the foundation, Naidoo also launched a victims\u2019 empowerment magazine that will endeavour to tell the stories of the cancer survivors, victims of abuse, those that have been trafficked, the former drug addicts and those living with albinism, HIV and the survivors of Aids as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
