PCA donates blankets by the hundreds to keep communities’ needy warmer

Pediatric Care Africa (PCA) started with its distribution of 500 brand-new blankets donated by Crossing Shopping Centre, The Square Nelspruit and Valley Hyper Centre in Mbombela.

“The people are excep-tionally grateful for the blankets, as many persons that benefited from our blanket drive on June 11, had only one or two blankets in their family; some had none and slept in their clothing to try and keep warm during the recent cold spell we were experiencing,” the PCA wrote on its Facebook page. “Thanks to the generosity of our blanket donors, a few hundred people in Mpumalanga will be sleeping warmer this winter.”
