MOVING SINCE 2009
PinkDrive NPC, a health sector NGO, was founded in 2009 by Noelene Kotschan on the premise that“ Early detection saves lives.” PinkDrive’ s fundamental purpose is to contribute meaningfully towards preventing as many people as possible from succumbing to breast, cervical, prostate and testicular cancer. The primary focus is on citizens without access to reasonable healthcare who reside in areas where health services do not reach.
PinkDrive recognizes that treatable cancers, when detected and treated early and receiving even the basic levels of care, could result in varying lengths of extended life.
PinkDrive is a promoter of health awareness in general but specifically health education and heightening awareness of gender related cancers in South Africa.
PinkDrive continues to meet the evolving needs of the medically uninsured. We are also pioneering the search for smart solutions that expand access to quality healthcare. In doing so, we have formed collaborative relationships with like-minded corporate partners. A good example is PinkDrive’ s Mobile Women’ s Health Units- an initiative to create and take and deliver primary healthcare to all South Africans.
PinkDrive has five principal interventions implemented through two flagship programs- PinkDrive ® and More Balls Than Most ®. These are channelled through a mobile service delivered by skilled medical and nursing practitioners.
Indigent and medically uninsured women and men are the primary beneficiaries of PinkDrive NPC’ s commitment. Citizens living in rural, township and semiurban areas across South Africa, are the highest priority. Beneficiaries who can afford payment for the service are charged an approved nominal amount, which funds the services to the indigent and medically uninsured beneficiaries.
