Charities can benefit from in-store gift wrapping service
Boksburg charities can apply now to become a beneficiary of the Shoprite, Checkers and Checkers Hyper festive season gift-wrapping fund-raiser.
Every year the retailer group assists hundreds of non-profit organisations this way and has in the past raised more than R2-million with its in-store gift wrapping service.
Applying to become a beneficiary organisation is easy:
1. Complete the online application form before October 31.
2. Attach a copy of your South African ID or passport and NPO certificate.
3. Read the terms and conditions.
4. Wait for email confirmation regarding the status of your application.
For a small donation, starting from as little as R5, customers can take advantage of the in-store gift wrapping service at their local Shoprite, Checkers or Checkers Hyper store.
All proceeds are donated to the beneficiary organisation managing the service in a specific store.
Charities can also use the opportunity to get youth from their communities involved by having them man the gift-wrapping stand on the charity’s behalf.
Go to www.shopriteholdings.co.za for more information and to complete the registration form.
