The public broadcaster will host a telethon to collect as many school shoes as possible on Friday, 17 July 2015. All staff, listeners and viewers are encouraged to come down to the SABC KwaZulu-Natal - 100 KE Masinga Road to dedicate 67 minutes to calling friends, family and corporate companies to donate towards this worthy cause.
All school shoes donated on this day will be distributed as part of
Lotus FM’s Warm Hearts campaign. “Your gift will help us to realize Mandela's legacy wish,” says station manager, Alvin Pillay.
“It is imperative that we teach the children of this country to be the best at whatever they do, they must be the difference, be the change and in their own way, they will be changing their future world,” comments
Lotus FM programmes manager, Santosh Beharie.
But they need support. If one would like to donate school shoes in honour of Madiba’s Legacy, dedicate 67 minutes by purchasing these gifts and drop them off at SABC KwaZulu-Natal – 100 KE Masinga Road - or email
[email protected] to register to be part of the telethon.
