WATCH: Community shows tremendous support for Ark this Mandela Day
CHARTWELL – Community members and businesses came out in full force to show their support for the call to action by the centre and Fourways Review.
Ark Animal Centre and the Fourways Review joined forces on Nelson Mandela Day this year to appeal for the community to donate second-hand goods to the centre’s new charity store.
The community did not disappoint, heeding this call to action by donating second-hand goods, dog blankets and a mountain of dog food.
