🌟 Mandela Day 2024: Unity, Service, and Change 🌟

We’re thrilled to share our plans for Nelson Mandela Day on July 18th, 2024! This year, we’re partnering with three incredible organizations to make a real impact, and we need your support:

🤝 Emmaus George : Help us provide essential toiletries and cleaning products.

🎁 Môreson ACVV Kinder- en Jeugsorgsentrum : We’re collecting clothing, toys, books, and board games to bring joy to the children.

🐾 Oudtshoorn Dogs in Need : Donate blankets and pet food to support their furry friends.

Plus, our Grade 7 - 9 students will be preparing fruit salad for Moreson Kinderhuis and sandwiches for Emmaüs. Please consider sponsoring ingredients for their efforts the morning before (July 17th).

Let’s come together to honour Mandela’s legacy of service and make a meaningful difference in our community. Your support is vital!
