Anyone who donates to the SPCA and wants their donations to be published in the City Times, can email their name and the amount of the donation to sheinar@caxton.co.za
Each week, the previous week’s contributions will be published.
Although the SPCA has started to receive donations, no parents have enrolled their children for the SPCA tours as yet.
The society is welcoming children and young adults between the ages of six and 18 years old, for an SPCA tour at a fee of R150 per person.
This money will be placed in the cheer fund which will be used to build a veterinary clinic on the premises.
The tour will be held every second Friday, from 2.30pm to 3.30pm, from October to January 20.
Tour dates are: October 28, November 11 and 25, December 9 and 23 and January 6 and 20.
According to SPCA manager, Vicky Finnemore, each person will receive a ‘goodie-bag’ and an educational tour of the premises, at 3 Klein Street, Lakefield.
All the participants will be photographed during each tour and published in the City Times.
Entry fees are payable to the SPCA, with the child’s name and surname, by the Wednesday prior to the Friday of the tour date.
