Benoni Supporting Dreams and Wearing Slippers.
Reach for a dream foundation.
Slipper Day is a South African initiative that aims to raise funds and awareness for the Reach for a Dream Foundation, a charity that supports children with life-threatening illnesses. One day every year, people are encouraged to wear their slippers to school or work and make a donation to the foundation.
The History of Slipper Day
Slipper Day was first launched in 2011 as a way to support the Reach for a Dream Foundation’s mission of fulfilling the dreams of children facing life-threatening illnesses. The idea behind the initiative was to create a fun and easy way for people to get involved and make a difference.
Since its launch, Slipper Day has grown in popularity, with thousands of people across South Africa participating each year. The event has become a beloved tradition that not only raises funds for the foundation but also spreads awareness about the important work they do.
Why Slipper Day is Important
Slipper Day is important because it helps to support the Reach for a Dream Foundation’s mission of giving hope and joy to children with life-threatening illnesses. The foundation believes that by fulfilling a child’s dream, they can give them the motivation and strength to face their illness and overcome it.
Through the funds raised on Slipper Day, the foundation is able to fulfill more dreams and provide support to more children and their families. In addition to raising funds, Slipper Day also helps to raise awareness about the foundation’s mission and the impact they have on the lives of children.
