Heed the call for Childline KZN’s Telethon
Participants will commit an hour of their time to call on their network of friends and associates in a bid to raise much-needed funding for the children’s organisation.
DURBAN’S most influential personalities are set to join forces with leading children’s helpline – Childline KZN – in its fourth annual telethon fundraiser. The novel two-day fundraising event, scheduled to take place on October 26 and 27 will see volunteers converge at the Childline KZN office to support the cause.
Participants will commit an hour of their time to call on their network of friends and associates in a bid to raise much-needed funding for the children’s organisation. The non-profit organisation, which depends on generous donations to sustain its life changing work, is the province’s largest and most prolific children’s charity.
Recognising that the commitment made by each telethon volunteer is as valuable as the donations received, the organisation is appealing to the public to heed the call to get involved this year.
“We are humbled by the generosity in response to the telethon each year, however, Childline KZN’s needs continue to far outstrip the support received. This year, our local superheroes have again come to our aid and we are hopeful that others will be inspired to assist,” said director, Nomvuyo Shabangu.
