To assist local non-profit organisations Edenvale City Improvement District has invited a number of NPO’s to attend its Festival of Lights.

On the boulevard, the Hidden Treasures charity store will be open so be sure to pop in.
Children will love the popcorn and “slushies” at the Edenvale Child Welfare stall, a delicious way to help raise funds.
Do not forget the feathered friends Brainy Birds Parrot Sanctuary which will also attend the event.
If you have a wish for this festival season, Edenvale festival goers can write it on The Wishes for Edenvale Wall.
The wall is an initiative of Rawsons Dowerglen.
“We would love to find a special place for all those wishes on the wall to be placed after the event,” said Tracy Eales of Rawsons.
Besides enjoying oneself community members are urged to support their local charities.
The festival will take place on November 25 on van Riebeeck Avenue.
