Muddy Pooches needs your help
Muddy Pooches worked tirelessly to assist the thousands of starving folk affected during the lockdowns and now they are in need of dire asistance.
Muddy Pooches supports the children with their animals in the Bossiesgif, Pinetrees and Qolweni settlements in Plettenberg Bay. Assisting with sterilizations, health care and food.
“Well this is a first for us. We have never been in this position. Our expenses have doubled in the last year and we have not been able to organise many fundraisers due to COVID restrictions.
“We have been digging into our own pockets more than ever and have been selling off whatever we have been able to, to come up with the money we need.
“This Saturday will be the very first time we are unable to help our kids. The first Saturday in 4 years. We never skipped one, not even during the riots or Level 5 lockdown.
“We have 2 magical fundraiser events that will be coming up in April and May and hope to raise some much needed money.
“For now, if you have R50 to spare, we know times are hard, but please think of us.” ~ The Muddy Pooches Team.
