    The season of joy, peace, love, sharing and gifts has arrived, but unfortunately this season is not as joyous for everyone as it could be.

    The season of joy, peace, love, sharing and gifts has arrived, but unfortunately this season is not as joyous for everyone as it could be.

    There are those who cannot enjoy Christmas time as much as others do because their basic needs are not being met.

    As we do every year, Grocott’s Mail is bringing a ray of hope to the underprivileged ones by collecting donations to help meet these needs. This year the Home of Joy will be receiving funds raised by the Grocott’s Mail Christmas Cheer Fund.

    As from early last month, Grocott’s Mail has been collecting donations for the Home of Joy home for children to help them have a better Christmas. So far, we now have R5 466.2 worth of donations from different companies, people and street collections and anyone is still welcome to make a donation,
    however small.

    Among the companies and people that have donated recently are Wheeldon, Rushmere and Cole attorneys
    R1 114.00, Remax Frontier estate agents R1 500, Grahamstown Bridge Club R250, Eagle’s Nest B&B R200, Ubom!

    Everything Christmas! show R279, Anonymous R900, Jennifer Jacobs R30 making the total R1 193.20. This is the season of giving and sharing so make your donation to the Christmas Cheer Funding by popping in at our
    offices at 40 High Street or giving us a ring on 046 622 7222.
