Season Of Hope 2023

Season Of Hope 2023

It’s that time of year when we start planning our holidays and time spent with loved ones. It’s a time of family, friends, togetherness and joy. Yet, there are those among us in need of love, joy, and above all else…hope.

This is why we have partnered with the Homeless Network in Johannesburg and we’re again calling on your generosity, to come forward with gifts and donations for the underprivileged.
