Bag a designer shopping bag at The food market at the Hellenic Community Centre in Durban North and contribute to two very worthy causes. The Sunflower Fund has given the Hillcrest Aids Centre the sunflower bandanas collected through their 2009 ‘Rope of Hope’ Campaign to be made into funky but useful shopping bags. The bags will be on sale for R25 from The food market information stand from 8.00am to 2.00pm and all proceeds will be split between The Sunflower Fund and the Hillcrest Aids Centre.

The public are also encouraged to drop off their sunflower bandanas at the information stand to be recycled into shopping bags in turn benefitting the two charities. The Sunflower Fund is on a mission to sell all their 2009 bandanas and make their R3million target to be used for the tissue typing of potential donors for inclusion on the South African Bone Marrow Registry. The more donors on the registry the more hope children and young adults diagnosed with leukaemia have of finding their life saving donor match. Please contact Shelley on 0800 12 10 82  to buy a couple of bandanas or a box of 100 for R2000 so that The Sunflower Fund can distribute them to The Hillcrest Aids Centre, The Robinhood Foundation, Westville Prison and other orphanages and old ages homes in KwaZulu Natal to be made into shopping bags, duvet covers, pillow cases, curtains and cot bumpers. Please specify that you are phoning from KwaZulu Natal.
