For 34 years, NGO Reach For A Dream has been fulfilling dreams of children fighting life-threatening illnesses.
These little dreamers’ childhoods are marred with endless doctors’ visits, lengthy hospital stays and often painful treatments, which is why the foundation remains committed to inspiring hope in these children’s and their families’ lives.
Reach For A Dream has previously been supported by industry giants Wimpy, Dis-Chem Pharmacies and Pick n Pay for its largest annual fund-raiser.
With two new partners this year, ToyZone and Baby City, the foundation intends to reach more South Africans.
This fun initiative is geared towards every South African, any age and any industry, from schools, corporates to individuals.
Last year, the NGO generated over R6-million, and all funds were used to fulfil dreams.
They plan to fulfil even more dreams this year and reach their target of R8-m.

In the spirit of this year’s running themes, Unity and Support, Reach For A Dream would like to encourage South Africa to stand together and show their support on Slipper Day on May 6.
Throughout history, we’ve seen the impossible made possible when South Africans stand together for change.
”Our call to action this year is simple. We ask all South Africans to rally behind us and play their part in being visible agents of change. The foundation’s biggest goal is to have every single South African in slippers on May 6,” said Julia Sotirianakos, Reach For A Dream CEO.
Each sticker purchased goes towards Reach For A Dream Foundation helping children harness the power of their dreams, to fight life-threatening illnesses and making these dreams come true.
Make sure to visit the Reach For A Dream website (reachforadream.org.za) and purchase a pair of slippers from their new funky range.
While you are browsing the range, why not pre-order your supporter sticker as well.
Slipper Day supporter stickers will be available to purchase in-store at Wimpy, Dis-Chem Pharmacies, Pick n Pay, ToyZone and Baby City from April 4. For every purchased supporter sticker, you will receive a free famous Wimpy coffee to enjoy on Slipper Day.
