The Faber family from Montreux, Switzerland is donating R9 500 to the Parys SPCA.
During their Christmas party in December last year, the Fabers raised funds in aid of the local animal welfare organisation. The family has been contributing to this charity for the past 11 years.
The SPCA is close to their hearts. The couple’s children, now 22 and 19 respectively, used to work at this animal welfare centre in Parys whenever they came to Jumanji, their holiday home.
The money they managed to raise will be paid to J.B. Bezuidenhout from Welkom Cafe, who will, in turn, see that dog food to the value of the donation, will be delivered to the SPCA.
The Fabers hope that people will follow their example in reaching out a helping hand to the local organisation.
