DONATE – whether it is a blanket or a scarf – and help spread some much-needed warmth this winter.
The Jeffreys Bay Fish and Bread Ministries, in conjunction with Smhart Security, embarked on their first Blanket Drive earlier this month – helping those who need it the most.
The Jeffreys Bay Fish and Bread Ministries, launched in June 2019, is a non-profit organisation that provides warm food to almost 100 homeless and less-fortunate residents every Tuesday.
“The need is real,” says Smhart Security Marketing Manager, Dewald van Staden. “In the winter months, there are so many residents – young and old – who are in desperate need of blankets to keep themselves warm from the harsh elements during the cold spells.
“Together, we can make a ‘warm’ difference.”
Anyone can make a donation: a gently used or new blanket, a sleeping bag, beanies, gloves, scarves, a jacket and anything that can keep the cold out this winter.
“We would like to encourage the people throughout Kouga to donate much-needed warm goods, blankets and non-perishable food for the needy,” says Van Staden.
Donations can be dropped off at Smhart Security’s office situated at 4 Disa Road in Jeffreys Bay. All donations will be distributed among the needy in May this year.
