The humans behind animal welfare groups are some of the best in the world, they face harrowing cases and never give up; An anonymous donor dropped off cake for the Midrand SPCA team.

 

Midrand, South Africa (01 September 2023) – The Midrand SPCA took to their social media pages to give thanks to an anonymous donor, who had delivered delicious cake to the hardworking team.

Often in animal welfare, the people who run the facilities, go out to collect animals and face the most harrowing cases of neglect and abuse, are forgotten about, not on purpose, but the stories are always focused on saving the animals.

When the staff of these animal welfare groups receive a little something, it goes a long way in boosting their morale and spirits. They too get to feel the joy of receiving a gift purchased just for them. Even if it’s just a delicious cake to go with their 5-minute break. It is soul-nourishing stuff!

Three delicious cakes were dropped off at the Midrand SPCA, enough for everyone and every taste. There was chocolate, vanilla and carrot cake on offer this week and it really made a difference.

The SPCA wanted the anonymous donor to know that their kind gesture had gone a long way.

“The smallest act of kindness can make the biggest difference!
Thank you to this anonymous donor for thinking of our staff and who chose to just spoil them a bit too!
This meant the absolute world to them! After a long and busy day, they could sit down and enjoy a treat, knowing that someone thought of them too! Thank you so so much!”

It really does take just one small act of kindness to make a change! So if you are wanting something to do this weekend, bake or buy something delicious and pop in at your nearest charity.
