1000 Hearts Campaign

On Friday HWB Communications launched the 1000 Hearts Campaign in aid of The Rape Crisis Cape Town Trust. I was rather shocked to find that the staggering number of over 52 000 reported rapes per year in South Africa represent only a fraction of the actual number. 8 out of 9 cases go unreported.

After hearing about the amazing service for victoms that The Rape Crisis provides we were invited to purchase a heart for someone we love, and to spread the word to encourage others to 'purchase a heart' on their on their website. For R100/month you can help a victom and their family obtain counselling and change their lives for the better.

I have been thinking hard out a small way I could make a difference and will be holding a cake and coffee networking morning at my home. R20.00 will buy you a cake to go with your coffee (R5.00). By asking friends to treat a friend to cake and coffee we can spread the word and help victoms receive the help they need. Keep looking, and I will keep you posted...
