Join the rest of South Africa by wearing your slippers on Friday, 1 August 2014...... The Reach for Your Slippers campaign is our biggest fundraiser of the year. Last year we raised a whopping R2.3 million for children fighting life-threat ening illnesses. Please help us to make more dreams come true. All you need to do is buy a R10 sticker and wear your slippers to work, school, the shops – or wherever you choose to and show your support for Reach For A Dream. If you are unable to wear your slippers, then wear your sticker with pride. By doing this, you are helping to fulfil dreams for children in hospitals and homes across South Africa. http://www.reachforadream.org.za/
