IN a first ever for the SPCA Uitenhage & District \u2013 which serves the entire Nelson Mandela Metropole and beyond \u2013 they will operate a charity shop as part of their fundraising efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe SPCA Uitenhage & District is continuously financially challenged, and we are forced to become innovative and find ways to earn additional income,\u201d said Deirdr\u00e9 Swift, chairperson of the SPCA Uitenhage & District.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis shop actually is an extension of our Jumble Sale which operates twice monthly. But instead of having a fundraiser only eight hours a month, we now can for six days or 24 hours a week, try to boost our financial situation.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The charity shop offers a variety of jumble, new as well as used items in good condition, for sale. These include clothing (kiddies to adults), books, cutlery, crockery, books, toys, household items and various other items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cVisitors will definitely get a lot for their money; prices are super low,\u201d said Swift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Owing to the COVID-19 pandemic and the social and economic impact it has on households, domestic animals often are the first to suffer. Thus, the SPCA Uitenhage & District experiences an increase in the intake of domestic animals in need, which put further strain on the association\u2019s financial resources. The SPCA relies on financial donations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you for continued support <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are very grateful to Olivia Davids of Wedding Bells who responded to our appeal when we were looking for a shop, and thereby enabling us to open our charity shop,\u201d said Swift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe also wish to thank all who are so generously donating items which we offer for sale at our charity shop.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
