Remax Dazzle Benoni was happy to put smiles on patients’ and children’s faces ahead of the Easter weekend.
Ann Prinsloo and Voula Chronias donated dog cookies to the Boksburg SPCA and Teddy Bears and Easter chocolates to the St Francis Care Centre.
According to Prinsloo, most people donate dog food, so they wanted to do something different.
“We baked many cookies for the dogs with corned beef or biltong flavour.
“We had to be part of this drive of collecting food for the SPCA because we care so much for these pets,” said Prinsloo.
Sue Beadon, secretary of the SPCA, said it is great for them to get donations for their animals and that shows great care from the community.
At the St Francis Care Centre, many patients and children were happy as they also got their gifts for Easter.
Chronias said they wanted to show the patients and children they care.
“We are giving back to the community. Most children are orphans here, and we just wanted to ease the pain of what they are going through,” explained Chronias.
Centre manager Tilly Brouwer said the donations will uplift the children’s mood.
“What Remax Dazzle has done is appreciated. These children come from different circumstances.
“The patients in our hospice are very ill and sometimes their loved ones don’t come and visit, so this gesture is the ultimate show of caring,” concluded Brouwer.
