Fundraisers

A group from the church Rebuilders of the Faith in Christ Jesus are holding a function in December, with the aim of raising funds for underprivileged children.

A concert and dance for young people is going to be held on Saturday 10th December at Aberdeen Secondary School, where youngsters can enjoy a fun evening of music. Cooldrinks and snacks will be available, as well as a meal at a very reasonable price. Entry to the dance costs R10 only.

The church’s aim is to help make needy children feel special at Christmas, and to be able to give small gifts to children who would normally not receive any presents.

The Jonas family would be very grateful for any donations in kind or of money, in order to help raise funds. Debrahlin Jonas can be contacted on 076 658 7123

Debrahlin Jonas and Melanie Frolick are visiting local businesses to ask for sponsorship for a Christmas treat for underprivileged children.
