Field of Dreams fundraiser

MELROSE – Scrap that boring company Christmas party and instead, treat your staff to a stunning night of glitz and glamour for a good cause. South Africa's best performers and designers will be coming together at Melrose Arch to raise funds for the Field of Dreams children's centre and you're invited.

The registered NGO, Field of Dreams, has announced an exciting upcoming fundraising event, which will enable the organisation to raise the funds required to build a children’s centre near Hartbeespoort.

The fundraising event will be held on 20 November at The Venue in Melrose Arch, and will be supported by some of South Africa’s top creative talents.

Jan Malan, known for his role as one of the producers on the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week and New York Fashion Week shows, will be the producer of the event and the fashion collections of high-profile designers such as David Tlale and Marianne Fassler will be showcased on the night.

Art Eye Gallery, a dynamic investment art and contemporary art space, have generously donated one-of-a-kind pieces by local artists which will be auctioned at the event.

The building of the centre is aimed at providing a safe and learner-friendly space for children and adults and also for creating educational opportunities. As a main focus point, there will be facility-based after-school programmes such as sports sessions, arts activities, as well as facilitated homework and after-school studies.

The centre, which will be located just opposite the community’s informal settlement, will also be available to the adults in the evenings – many of whom are unemployed and will be able to learn a number of practical skills.

To provide great opportunities, the Field of Dreams centre urges everyone to purchase a ticket for the event at R1 000 per person.

To purchase a ticket, please contact Lee Den Hond on 011 807 2341, or Lee@blueplatinumevents.co.za
