All of a sudden the mercury plummeted and winter is here.

This sudden shift in seasons has highlighted the realities faced by many in our community.

While some are fortunate enough to retreat into warm homes, shielded by adequate clothing and heating, others are not afforded such luxuries.
The bitter cold makes the less fortunate more vulnerable.

In a call for empathy, WITBANK NEWS is embarking on a project to collect blankets and warm clothes for the less fortunate.

Driving this project, WITBANK NEWS advertising representative, Annatjie du Toit, said, “This drive is an opportunity to contribute to a cause that directly impacts our community, transforming acts of kindness into much-needed warmth.”

You can be part of this project by dropping off blankets, jackets, gloves and scarfs at the WITBANK NEWS office at 2 Lana Street in Model Park.

WITBANK NEWS will post regular updates on social media and in print about the progress of the project.

On July 4, the WITBANK NEWS staff will be at the Gereformeerde Kerk Hoëveld’s golf day at Witbank Golf Club.
You are also welcome to drop winter woollies off on the day and pop in for a chat.

For more information about the winter warmer project, contact Annatjie on 063 605 3454.
