When SCOUTS South Africa members rally to make a difference in the lives of others, the impact thereof is life-changing! Over 223 Scout members and families joined this year’s Mandela Day campaign and collected 1757,38kg of bread tags and plastic tops!
Your contributions will enable “Breadtags for Wheelchairs” and “The Sweethearts Foundation” to each provide someone with at least one wheelchair!
Thanks to everyone for their hard work, and for doing their best to not only be a Champion for Nature and remove nearly 1.8 ton of plastic from our environment, but also for ensuring that at least two people will be given more independence and better mobility with their own wheelchairs through partner organisations “Breadtags for Wheelchairs” and “The Sweethearts Foundation”. (To the Groups that are yet to drop off their collections, please do so as soon as possible.)

Breadtags for Wheelchairs:
