The Boksburg Advertiser is in need of your help to once again make a success of its annual Winter Wool Drive.
Donations of wool will help us help various local groups who knit teddies and other items for distribution to the Cancer Association of SA and organisations that look after the underprivileged, especially in winter.
All qualities, quantities and textures are welcome. Knitted items such as beanies, scarves and blankets will also be appreciated.
Project coordinator Elize Kluyts urged community members to warm their hearts and knit to help us keep the needy warm.
“They are anticipating a cold winter this year, so any contribution will appreciated. We only put out boxes for wool a week ago and already received generous donations,” said Kluyts.
Drop your donations of wool off at the following points in Boksburg:
* Caxton Local Media, 20 Sydney Road, Ravenswood
* Bernina, The Terminal, Unit 4, Cnr Trichardt and Dr Vosloo roads
* Med-Leigh Pharmacy, The Square Centre, Rietfontein Road
