Story 2
Blanket Drive Jozi has launched its sixth annual winter outreach campaign to support vulnerable communities during the cold season.
The initiative began with a donation drive at Hotel Hope in Melville last week, where 70 blankets, 70 cases of canned food and other essential items were handed over.
Founder Beven Naidu says the campaign started as a small effort among friends and family with a goal of donating just 50 blankets.
The initiative has since grown significantly and aims to distribute 850 blankets this year, reflecting increasing community support.
