The clinic helps up to 1 500 sick, injured and homeless pets of Khayelitsha each month. ‘Our clinic and shelter are bursting at the seams and this requires a lot of funding,’ says Marcelle du Plessis, fundraising and communications executive.
‘Our yearly cost is just under 15 million rand and we need all the support we can get from the public to help us care for the animals. We hope that we can sell out at our gala dinner to raise much-needed funds for the pets who rely on our services.
‘Mdzananda Animal Clinic extends its deepest gratitude to all supporters and sponsors for their generosity and commitment to animal welfare. Together, we can create a brighter future for the furry friends of Khayelitsha, one paw at a time.’
Donations are also accepted from those who are unable to attend.
