Links to TB Work - 2feet4TB - Neal Stacey
Neal Stacey, like myself, is a TB survivor. He both runs and cycles to create awareness about TB and has done amazing work in making the disease of TB known. A true fighter, he has come back from the killer disease Tuberculosis is, and has made it his life's work to spread the news that TB can be overcome, and that TB is curable.
Every year on Mandela's birthday, 18th July, millions of South Africans are called on to spend 67 minutes working for the good of others. The duration symbolises the 67 years that the late Nelson Mandela spent fighting for social justice.
Madiba was a TB survivor. and in honour of his legacy, Neal Stacey, TB survivor, advocate and the founder of the 2Feet4TB initiative is 67 years old and is personally embarking on the following mission:
From 6th of July, he will be walking and/or running 6.7km for 67 consecutive days until his 68th birthday which is on the 11th September.
During this period, Neal will also be cycling 67kms once a week
The total distance he will cover over this period is 1185.9 kms.
On Saturday 17th July Neal ran 67 kms and on Sunday 18th July he cycled for 67 kms.
You can support this initiative by contributing R6.70 per day, or per km, or just once off, or whenever you choose within the 67 day Day challenge.
All proceeds will be used to purchase blankets for distribution to those in need.
All monetary contributions may be deposited into the following banking account;
This year, 2023, FOSA and NATBA will be hosting Neil Stacey during the period around Worls TB Day. He will join us in the TB Placard Demonstration, address FOSA and volunteers after this event, speak on Hindvani Radio, be interviewed by the SUN newspapers, run in the TOTI Parkrun, have breakfast at the Amanzimtoti Methodist Church and address those who come together.
On Sunday he will run the half marathon of the Durban City Marathon, and on Monday fly back to the Western Cape after visiting the Mahatma Gandhi Museum.
We look forward to his being with us.
Update: Late last year Neal suffered from heart disease and although better now was sidelined
from his tenacious fight to bring TB and TB treatment to the public.
We wish him well as he recovers to be 2 feet 4 TB's icon.
