SPCA’s Cheer Fund tops R40 000
The amount that has been raised for the Christmas Cheer Fund so far, amounts to R43 188.
The Cheer Fund will be running until the end of January, so please continue to help raise much needed funds for our four-legged friends at the Boksburg SPCA.
While friends, families and loved ones are celebrating, there are always animals behind bars that we tend to forget about.
The Boksburg SPCA finds its kennels overwhelmed during the Christmas and New Year period; thus the Advertiser is again assisting with the fund-raising drive.
The purpose of the Christmas Cheer Fund is to raise funds to cater for all the furry critters that need to be fed – Christmas treats were give to all the unfortunate pets behind bars.
The community is encouraged to get involved by honouring past and present pets through pledging donations – no amount is too small – at the society’s premises, in Railway Street, Boksburg; or by depositing it into the bank account: Boksburg SPCA, Absa Bank, Eastlands Branch 630442, account number 4046388139.
Beneficiary reference: Christmas Cheer and your name/anonymous (it’s very important that it be indicated that the payment is for the Christmas Cheer Fund).
