In true Potchefstroom spirit, where community and compassion always come first, StroomCares invites all local businesses and residents to join hands (and dancing shoes!) for a special fundraising evening , “Dans vir W.J.”

This heartfelt event is being held in support of W.J. Immelman, a devoted father of three and a respected member of our community, who is bravely fighting bone marrow cancer. The evening promises not only great fun but also a chance to make a real difference in the life of a family facing extraordinary medical challenges.
A Night of Unity and Generosity
Hosted at Die Voerkraal in Fochville on Friday, 28 November 2025, the event will feature live entertainment from the beloved Oppi-Stoep Dansorkes, as well as stalls, children’s activities, and, of course, dancing for a purpose.
The goal? To raise vital funds to help cover W.J.’s ongoing medical expenses, including costly blood transfusions, specialised medication, and upcoming treatment. His journey has inspired countless locals who’ve witnessed his courage and faith during this difficult time, and now, the community has a chance to give back.
Exciting Prizes and Business Involvement
To make the evening even more special, StroomCares and event organisers are calling on businesses across Potchefstroom to get creative and involved. There are fantastic prizes up for grabs, including:
🪩 Best Decorated Table
🎁 Business Sponsors and Contributors Recognition
👗 Best Dressed Group
💃 Top Dance Participants
Every business can play a role - whether it’s sponsoring an item, donating a gift voucher or product, contributing financially, or simply joining in as a team to celebrate life, strength, and community together.
Every Contribution Counts
W.J. and his family are facing immense financial strain due to the high costs of treatment, daily blood tests, and travel to specialised care units. His courage has inspired hope, but the reality is that ongoing treatment and a potential bone marrow transplant come with tremendous costs.
By supporting Dans vir W.J., your business becomes part of a movement that reminds us all what it means to truly care ,not just during the holidays, but every day. Every table booked, every donation made, and every dance step taken helps to lift a family in need.
Be Part of the Difference
As StroomCares continues to shine a light on stories of hope, resilience, and community kindness, this event stands as a powerful reminder that Potchefstroom’s heart beats strongest when we come together.
Let’s fill the dance floor with laughter, music, and compassion , and help give W.J. and his family the gift of hope this festive season.
