Thank you:
The RECORD wishes to thank those who have already dropped groceries and clothing off at our offices. “Once again we stand in awe of our community’s helping hands and open hearts. Words cannot describe the feeling which is somewhere between tearful and a grateful heart. When we call on the help of our advertisers and readers, our community, you are always so willing to help. We salute you,” said Carina van der Walt, editor.
The first company to deliver goods to our offices was Mr Sweet, Alberton branch. They delivered boxes filled with sweets. Biancé Gewindelingh from Mr Sweet is putting the challenge out there to other companies to come on board and have their donations delivered to the offices of the RECORD.
