As a regular supporter of the NSRI, you will also stand five chances of winning R10,000 every month.
And you can achieve all this with a minimum monthly donation of only R25 (per entry) – not bad for such a small investment.
Sea Rescue is the charity that saves lives on South African waters. Its crews put their lives at risk in order to save the life of a stranger. They will voluntarily go to sea in the worst conditions to help anyone in need.
During last year’s festive season, the NSRI rescued a total of 138 people during 122 rescues. Of these, 40 had been caught in rip currents.
The busiest days for NSRI crew were 27 December with 11 rescues, and 1 January with 10 rescues.
“Because the NSRI is a non-profit organisation, we rely solely on the generosity of the public to finance our lifesaving operations,” said chief executive of NSRI, Cleeve Robertson.
“The free services of volunteers enable us to provide help and safety where it’s needed and donations take care of craft maintenance and fuel costs. That means every contribution you make goes directly towards our rescue missions.
What’s more, because your support is so valuable to us, you will also stand a chance of winning R100,000 in our annual draw.
So, apart from the fact that you will help us keep our South African waters safe, you will also be entitled to an automatic entry into all monthly NSRI competitions for the duration of your membership.”
