Go to work in slippers for the day
For every sticker purchased, you can also enjoy a free Famous Wimpy Coffee on Slipper Day.
Slipper Day is Reach For A Dream’s most celebrated fundraiser.
This year Slipper Day will take place on Friday, May 7. How nice would it be to be able to walk around in slippers at work knowing you’re helping young children to help their dreams to come true.
‘Not all heroes wear capes’ is the running theme of the campaign and is a fitting reminder that all the brave children fighting life-threatened illnesses, doctors, nurses and their families are the true heroes of this time.
“This Slipper Day promises to echo the hearts of all our heroes, and why it is so important for South Africans to come together and believe in the power of dreams and more so, what this means for a child sick in hospital,” said Julia Sotirianakos, Reach For A Dream, CEO.
In a normal year, Reach For A Dream would fulfil six dreams a day but since the pandemic, this has changed drastically, and has forced the foundation to adapt, innovate and respond swiftly to ensure dreams still matter, and that these incredible children and their families know they are thought of.
“To do the work that we do at Reach For A Dream is so special, and it is a daily reminder that more hope and heroes are needed in the world,” continued Julia.
Together with their retail partners: Dis-Chem Pharmacies, Pick n Pay and Wimpy, Reach For A Dream is determined that dreams cannot be locked down.
For that reason they would like to encourage everyone to gear up and get ready for Slipper Day by purchasing a supporter sticker for only R20 in-store as well as a new pair of slippers for the occasion by visiting www.slipperday.co.za.
Slipper Day supporter stickers will be available to purchase in-store at all the retail partners: Dis-Chem Pharmacies, Pick n Pay and Wimpy from April 7.
For every sticker purchased, you can also enjoy a free Famous Wimpy Coffee on Slipper Day.
Don’t forget to share your Slipper Day ‘selfie’ on social media, encouraging everyone to get involved on #slipperday2021.
Get involved today and help Reach For A Dream inspire more hope and make the dreams of life-threatened children come true.
