CALLING ON ALL HEROES TO UNITE! 

HEROES UNITE is a fundraising initiative from VaVa iYouth; the youth action team of The National Council of and for Persons with Disabilities (NCPD).

This year The Walt Disney Company Africa is teaming up with the NCPD under the Marvel brand with an awareness campaign about the challenges children and youth with disability face, and more importantly highlighing their strengths.

We hope to encourage young people to embrace diversity. We believe that young people are the future and can make a significant impact on the lives of others.

Marvel characters embody attributes such as heroism, relatability, courage, tenacity, and more. HEROES UNITE urges everyone, regardless of ability, to find their inner hero and share them with the world.

 The funds raised through this initiative will help provide much-needed assistive devices, and access to education for children and young people throughout South Africa. 

By purchasing our HEROES UNITE wristbands for R30 each: you, your staff, and your learners can show your support for children with disabilities and make a meaningful difference in their lives.

 PARTICIPATING IS EASY 

Simply buy a wristband online or fill out this manual order form and email, or fax it to: ado@ncpd.org.za or rokkie@ncpd.org.za.

Contact Ado Bakasa/Rokkie at the NCPD for more info: 011 452 2774.
