✏️ We’re going back to Westlake Primary ✏️
After such a successful school drive last year, we decided to do it again!

Hi Friends ☺️

Do you have an adult bicycle, helmet and/or male clothing to donate?!

We desperately want to help a young man who was involved in a hit and run back in May. During the accident, his bicycle, phone and wallet were stolen. He spent months in hospital with severe injuries that left him unable to work and support his little boy.

He is now out of hospital and due to start back at work. We would love to help him get back on his feet and back on his beloved bicycle!!

Please get in touch if you have the following:
- adult bicycle
- adult size helmet
- adult male clothing (size: small-medium)
- young boys clothing (for his son, size: 8 years)

Happy to collect!!

Thank you 🙏

💨 OPERATION STORMY WESTLAKE 💨
The Giving Bag donated over 3,500 items of clothing, shoes, blankets and towels to the Westlake community 🤍
Between the 8th and 12th July, severe storms hit Cape Town. Many people lost their homes and belongings to strong winds and flooding. On Friday the 12th, I saw an urgent appeal to support 25 families who lost everything to the storm. We immediately packed up our ENTIRE store room and donated it to the entire Westlake Community. More than 300 people were helped that evening.
A very special shout out to Cessi Antonie, who coordinated “operation stormy Westlake” and to my family visiting from the US, who spent their evening hauling bags and sorting donations 🤍

❤️ HANNAH’S PLACE OF SAFETY ❤️
On Monday we had the absolute pleasure of donating over 200 items of baby essentials to Hannah's Place of Safety
A little back story… as a child my parents fostered a multitude of children aged newborn-18 years old. Foster care and supporting children from disadvantaged circumstances have a huge place in my heart and is a big reason why I started The Giving Bag.
Hannah’s Place of Safety look after babies birth to 1 years old. Many of the babies suffer from neglect, abuse, drug withdrawal, malnutrition and illness. Janine and her team see to their every need whilst providing a loving and nurturing home.
During our visit we had the opportunity to learn about how Hannah’s Place of Safety started, tour their beautiful home and spend time cuddling/holding the babies. It was incredibly heartwarming to see how well nurtured, cared for and loved the babies are.
If you would like to support Hannah’s Place of Safety please see their Adopt a Cot scheme on their page. If you would like to donate to help support more women and children kindly find drop off details below:
