The Soweto Hospice Shop needs you!

The Hospice Shop in Diepkloof recently opened to assist the hospital they have in Houghton where severely ill patients are taken care of. They would love the communities in Soweto to help them help the patients by donating unwanted goods.

The shop in Diepkloof collects everything from second-hand clothing to furniture and shoes to sell and support the sick patients at the hospital.

Phindile Magazi spoke about her experience since she started working at the shop. She said, “It is always a delight to see the customers walking into the shop and finding what they need at very low prices.”

The shop opened this year July 28 and according to Magazi, the growth is astounding.

The shop is very welcoming, elegant and carefully taken care of. Priscilla Modipa is also an employee at the shop and enjoys the responsibility because she is passionate about helping people.

She said, “It has been a great experience for me especially because here I get to serve the people while I lend a helping hand.”

The shop sells second-hand clothing and other items like glasses and books at affordable prices. Magazi elaborated that even though the hospice shop collects old clothes, they urge people to donate decent clothes.

Magazi said, “I love people and wish to help them all the time, I have been in the retail industry for a long while now and it really makes me happy whenever I get to serve them and they get good stuff at a price they can afford.”

Even though the shop accepts second-hand clothing, people are astonished at the quality.

People who would like make donations to the critically ill in a hospital can visit the Soweto Hospice Shop in Diepkloof or call 011 985 0158.

The shop opens every weekday from 8.30am till 4.30 pm and on Saturdays from 9 am to 4 pm.
