APPEAL FOR DONATIONS
Our Social Development Department has a constant need for donations, such as listed below. We appeal that clothing items be washed before you drop it off at the Diocesan Offices. We hand these items to people in need and do so with dignity. The Diocese don’t have facilities to wash clothing and many a time those receiving it, also do not have such facilities as they rebuilt their lives and homes. Kindly contact us for any other donations, such as furniture and household electrical appliances.
