FUNDRAISING: Help HIV/Aids sufferers while you walk in comfort

Sunday Times (Johannesburg) - August 21, 2005
Sibongile Khumalo


A DURBAN company is making shoes to support women and children affected by HIV/Aids.

Soul of Africa sells the comfortable Khulani leather moccasins to raise funds to build houses and improve the living conditions of Aids orphans.

The moccasins are hand stitched by unemployed women from informal settlements.

They are available in a range of fashionable colours at Froggie stores and other independent outlets throughout the country.

For more details, call Sarah Gedye on (031) 450-0200.
