2017 PET Drive a success

FNB PET Drive Volunteers have successfully completed their annual eight day ride for two animal charities on Friday, August 25.

“The PET Drive volunteers are ordinary South Africans like you and I who love animals and love riding their motorbikes,” stated Taryn-Ann Pauls, one of the PET Drive volunteers.
The 2017 campaign was aimed at helping Hoedspruit Animal Outreach ‘HALO’ as well as Wollies Animal Project, which is based in Gauteng.
“These charities share our love for animals and were founded to make a difference in their communities. They raise awareness on animal abuse, teach owners how to treat, feed and care for their animals & supply them with many free services from vet care and food to sterilisations,” she added.
