The Bluff Assist community group is spreading joy and hope through their Unicorn Shopping initiative by providing struggling families with essential items.
Bluff, South Africa (16 September 2024) – To have some decent clean clothes beyond those on your back, a toy for your little one and a book to enrich a young mind are just some of the great desires that many struggling families have.
Offering essentials and a helping hand through a unique ‘shopping experience’ are the selfless members of the Bluff Assist community group.
The volunteers are currently collecting clothes, toys and books for their Unicorn Shopping initiative which gives back to the destitute community within the Bluff area.
“We realised our community has many vulnerable people, and many community members willing to assist,” shares Bluff Assist member Chantal Bransgrove-Bower.
The Unicorn Shopping will be the Bluff Assist Youth League’s first community event. Families will have the opportunity to bring their kids to ‘shop’ for some clothes, toys or books at no cost.
“Parents get to walk through and choose 10 items that they need. Clothes or shoes, and then kids can also choose some toys and books.
“If we have food available on the day that has been donated, we also distribute that. All items are free and sent with love and care from their community. It’s a way to help those in need, and also involve the community.”
All items on ‘sale’ will be preloved items and donated by the community to show love to a new family in need, a truly heartwarming testament to the power of community.
