The group will hand over a memorandum of demands to the Krugersdorp Police at the end of the march.
With local authorities making drug discoveries almost daily, it is understandable why community members would want to join this march.
The most recent public drug bust was carried out by Drift Reaction and the local Community Policing Forum at three shelters in Krugersdorp.
