CASUAL Day has become a firm favourite on the calendar of many of South Africa’s businesses. It is an excellent opportunity for corporate team-building while also making a contribution to one of the most vulnerable sectors of the society – people with disabilities.
Casual Day is an annual event and this year it is being held on 4 September with the theme of ‘Spring into Action’.
The campaign invites all caring and fun-loving South Africans to dress differently for a day to raise funds for, and awareness of, disabilities. It is the leading fundraising project in the disability sector, has a credible history and truly represents organisations of and for people with disabilities.
Casual Day is a highlight on the calendar of the participating beneficiaries, businesses, schools, youth groups, churches and South African citizens at large. For going on 21 years, the first Friday in September is reserved for dressing in outfits from the fun to the fantastical, all in support of people with disabilities.
To earn the right to dress in this way, a donation of R10 is made for the official Casual Day sticker. Not only does Casual Day raise funds, it also raises awareness of opportunities for full inclusion of people with disabilities into society.
Contact the QuadPara Association KZN on 031 701 7444 to place your orders for stickers.
