Planting seeds of anti-drug abuse
RABIE RIDGE - An anti-drug awareness campaign was held at Dulcie September Primary School for the Rabie Ridge community.
The campaign aims to offer alternative interests to drug users and the community.
Co-ordinator of the day Jackie Viljoen said Rabie Ridge Police Station, Metro police’s dog unit, Social Welfare and Midrand SPCA pledged their support of the anti-drug awareness campaign. More than 100 community members attended the day.
Viljoen said, “Colonel Pieter September from the Metro police dog unit introduced the community members to caring for dogs and the importance of having dogs as man’s best friend. Pastor Henry Elias from the Maranatha Pentcostal Assemblies, with help from landscaping professionals, showed community members how to plant flowers and Rabie Ridge Police Station Commander Colonel Molatelo Maoto pledged his commitment to working with the ministry.”
Viljoen appealed to the community to continue to support the campaign and said another one would be held on 18 January next year.
