Gratitude campaign bring smiles to North Coast hospitals

Soon one box became dozens of boxes with compassionate North Coast locals jumping at the chance to join the Frontline Gratitude Box initiative. 

A random act of kindness might be what our essential staff in the medical industry need most. 

“We all know our hospital and paramedic staff are exhausted,” said Salt Rock resident Katrin Kitlas.

It is with this in mind that gratitude took the form of a box of snacks and pick-me-ups.

Special appreciation for the doctors on the frontline.

Soon one box became dozens of boxes with compassionate North Coast locals jumping at the chance to join the Frontline Gratitude Box initiative. 

So far 2 loads of donations have been delivered to a number of hospitals, clinics and paramedics. 

Netcare Alberlito staff show great appreciation for the donations.

Donations can be dropped off at 10 Wilkes Road, Salt Rock where items are sanitized and packaged prior to distribution.

Further collection points are Ballito Village Spar and La Montagne.

Ready for distribution, these are what most of the packets are generally made up of.

If you would like to donate, Katrin suggested keeping things simple: a chocolate or energy bar, or a small packet of sweets or an energy drink under R20.

To get involved contact Katrin at 084 208 5334.
