Readers boost our fundraising coffers

Sunday Times (Johannesburg) - August 6, 2006


THE Sunday Times fundraising effort to build a suitable dining hall for a desolate community ravaged by HIV/Aids in the northern KwaZulu-Natal town of Eshowe is gaining momentum.

The aim is to build a structure with all the necessary facilities for Aids orphans at the facility, which is run by Nurturing Orphans of Aids for Humanity (Noah) - a non-governmental organisation - and funded by US President George Bush's President's Emergency Plan for Aids Relief (PEPFAR).

This week, readers pledged R7901 to take the total donations to R10652, besides the Sunday Times staff pledge of R10000.

We appeal to readers to forward their particulars to us - by phone (031) 250-8500, fax (031) 250-8522 or e-mail kznextra@sundaytimes.co.za - to ensure that we publish the names of those who help us achieve our goal.

We hope to finalise the building of the structure by the end of October.
