Two young animal welfare volunteers from St Francis Bay are on their way to Cape Town after generous supporters helped make their school trip possible.
Clifton and Shakira volunteer with St Francis Animal Rescue, caring for animals and helping with community outreaches.
When the organisation put out a call for support, people stepped in to help cover the R6 000 trip cost for each learner.
The pair, along with fellow volunteer Zozo, have now joined their classmates for five days of exploring the Mother City.
