Story 1
Slipper Day returns on 29 May 2026, calling on South Africans to wear slippers and buy a R20 sticker to support children with life-threatening illnesses.
The campaign, led by Reach For A Dream, raises funds to fulfil the dreams of children facing serious medical conditions, from meeting role models to unique once-in-a-lifetime experiences.
Organisers say the initiative brings hope to children and their families, with every sticker sale helping turn dreams into reality.
