Donate to flood relief efforts at any Shoprite or Checkers store

Customers can also make donations of groceries at collection points

SOUTH Africans wanting to help flood victims in KZN and the Eastern Cape can add R5 or more to their grocery bill at Shoprite or Checkers till points.

The donations will go into the Act for Change Fund, which was established in response to the call by customers to support communities in distress.

‘All proceeds will be donated to Gift of the Givers to support the organisation’s extensive relief efforts in the flooded regions.

‘Customers can also make donations of groceries at collection points in all Shoprite and Checkers stores in KZN,’ the Shoprite Group said.

The retailer has also dispatched four soup kitchens, each feeding up to 1 000 people daily.

‘Food, disposable nappies as well as blankets are among the items the retailer is distributing to those in need,’ Shoprite said.

The group said through the Act for Change Fund, customers have helped to bring much needed relief during the Knysna fires in 2017, and most recently during the drought in the Western and Eastern Cape.
