Let’s make our 2018 new years resolution to give back to those less fortunate.

Do you have a pile of unwanted Christmas gifts lying around or a heap of last year’s fashion trends you don’t wear anymore? One man’s rubbish is another man’s treasure! Why not donate them to people in need that will cherish those items more.

Here are a few Charities in Cape Town that will truly appreciate any donations and/or second-hand goods.
