A circle of giving

Dudu Zondi. HIVAN Campus HIV/AIDS Support Unit .
Community Outreach volunteers attached to HIVAN?’s Campus HIV/AIDS Support Unit at the University of KwaZulu-Natal?’s Howard College campus held a fundraising event over two days in May 2005. Over R1 500 was collected from the sale of raffle tickets for patients and families at McCord Hospital?’s Sinikithemba Care Centre, and more than 15 bags of clothing were donated to the Hillcrest AIDS Trust Centre for their income-generation scheme.

The lucky draw held on 11 and 12 May offered prizes that included meal vouchers for the Wimpy and Spur Restaurants?’ Davenport outlets, SunCoast Nu-Metro movie tickets, CDs from Musica, wine from Queensmead Spar and a toaster from Knowles Spar, East Coast Radio T-shirts, a sports-bag from Standard Bank and books from HIVAN.

More fundraising events are planned for the coming months, and the Campus HIV/AIDS Support Unit serves as a drop-off and redistribution point for anyone wishing to donate clothing at any time.
