LIFE as we knew it and the way business was conducted changed forever when South Africa went into hard lockdown on 27 March last year owing to the Covid-19 pandemic.
As a result, the Zululand Observer has decided to commemorate that day on 26 March with the selling and wearing of special black ribbons in support of a worthy cause.
ALSO READ: DICE spreading warmth across Zululand Community members are invited to support the initiative. Ribbons will be sold at R10 each, with all proceeds going towards the Zululand Observer’s charity arm, DICE (Do I Care Enough?).
Over the past year DICE has helped many institutions and families during the tough times, and this fundraiser will go a long way in enabling DICE to continue being of assistance among the local community. Black ribbons will be sold at the Zululand Observer offices at 3 Baines Road, Empangeni. Companies and schools are encouraged to make bulk purchases to sell amongst staff and pupils. As a means of thanking those who support the campaign, the ZO will publish the names of everyone who purchases a black ribbon in a special ‘Covid-19 – One Year Later’ feature inside the ZO Weekender edition on 26 March.
