Advertiser's Winter Wool Drive gets a boost
As the cold weather conditions continue, donations keep pouring in to the Boksburg Advertiser's Winter Wool Drive – set up to collect wool or knitted items to be devoted to shield the less fortunate and vulnerable citizens against the biting winter cold days.
Impala Park's Madeleine Ritter and her daughter Wanda were the latest to make a real impact to the initiative when they showed up on Wednesday (June11) fully loaded with wool supplies and some knitted items.
These touching acts of kindness enable the project to support various local groups during the colder months. These include, elderly citizens, and underprivileged children in the community.
The drive remains open for donations of all types of wool, regardless of quality, quantity or texture. Knitted items, such as beanies, scarves and blankets will also be gratefully accepted until the end of July.
You may drop your wool or knitted items off here:
• Caxton Local Media, 20 Sydney Road, Ravenswood.
• Med-Leigh Pharmacy, The Square Shopping Centre, Rietfontein Road.
• Vellie Boutique, corner 6th Street and Rietfontein Road.
• Eyeland Optometrist, Shop 17E, East Rand Mall.
• Absolute Batteries, 86 Rietfontein Road.
