Answering the plight of farmers

SA – In response to the plight of farmers living in the drought-stricken Northam Cape, Platinum Publishers launched a project to collect food and toiletries for these farmers.

These donations were handed over to Boere Droogtehulp SA on Monday 28 October.
The severe drought experienced over the past few years has brought farmers to their knees as the harsh weather conditions threaten crops and livestock. 


Thank you to everyone who donated and each donation will make a difference. Farmers are an integral part of the SA food security and this is a problem that affects all of us. It is definitely not something that can be solved overnight. 


To assist, contact Boere Droogtehulp SA founders Chris van Beljon or JJ du Preez directly at 082 961 6620 or 082 567 0363.
