Introducing Fika Phila: Empowering Cancer Patients Through Transportation Solutions

In alignment with our commitment to impactful investments, Decusatio Impact Investments proudly introduces the Fika Phila Project. Spearheaded by Campaigning for Cancer (C4C), Fika Phila addresses a critical challenge faced by cancer patients in South Africa: reliable transportation to treatment centers. Collaborating with the Siyaphambili Cashless Taxi Association and Uber, this initiative ensures cancer patients have access to safe and timely transportation to medical facilities.

Key Features of the Fika Phila Project:

  • Transportation Solutions: Leveraging app-based services from Siyaphambili and Uber, Fika Phila provides safe and reliable transport for cancer patients, eliminating the stress of arranging or affording transportation.
  • Financial Relief: By covering transportation costs, Fika Phila alleviates the financial burden on patients and their families, allowing them to prioritise essential expenses like food and medical treatment.
  • Impact on Patient Health: Reliable transportation prevents missed appointments, crucial for maintaining the effectiveness of cancer treatment and preventing health deterioration.
  • Community Support: Supported by a grant from a local civil society organisation, Fika Phila highlights the community’s role in enhancing patient care and well-being.

Achievements to date:
Over the past three months, Fika Phila has registered 343 patients on the Siyaphambili app and facilitated 47 immunocompromised patients’ trips using Uber. A total of 344 Uber round trips were recorded during December, January, and February, demonstrating the project’s significant reach and impact.
