Warmth for the day











Always needed, Always there
The Gauteng Regional Office and the Johannesburg Branch felt for the vulnerable homeless people. The cold weather prompted the Red Cross Staff and Volunteers to do something to help those in need. They went all out into the cold streets of Johannesburg dishing out warm soup and bread to the people.
We thank our Volunteers, Donors and Staff for such humane efforts.
