Cansa is bringing the Cansa Socialite competition to Gauteng this year and is calling for entries.<\/p>
The showcase will take place at Carnival City on October 13 and 14.<\/p>\n
Cansa Socialite \u2013 Perform for a Cause gives aspiring performers the opportunity to showcase their talent, as well as become Cansa ambassadors, taking the message of cancer awareness and lowering the cancer risk to their various communities, all whilst raising funds to enable Cansa to continue to offer support to those affected by the disease.<\/p>
\u201cCansa is a cause close to our hearts and we are thrilled to have partnered with the Cancer Association of South Africa on this worthy and fun-filled cause, benefiting all involved,\u201d said Michelle Smith, the marketing manager for Carnival City.<\/p>\n
Besides offering a modelling category for boys and girls aged three to 19 years of age, this year\u2019s edition of Socialite has broadened the opportunity for performers.<\/p>\n
If you are a passionate actor, singer or dancer of any age you can also enter and stand the chance of being scouted as well.<\/p>\n
