Winter is setting in and there are people throughout South Africa who will really feel the chill – but won’t have the wherewithal to keep themselves and their families warm. All Hirsch stores around the country will be the drop off points for blankets this year as they will be joining in with the Twitter campaign that was started with a Tweet by Melanie Minnaar, who in 2010 Tweeted, ‘What if each person on Twitter donated a blanket for the poor.’ The rest as they say is history. Today there are events throughout Africa that are held to raise money for NPO’s who make sure that each blanket goes to the people who really need them during the chilly months.
The official hashtag for the event is #TBD2013. Please share this with each tweet as you add your support for this event.
Share this cause with your friends, family and your community.
Our target this year is 30 000 Blankets.
All Hirsch stores around the country will be the drop off points for the blankets.
When you drop off your blankets take a picture and upload it to Twitter or Facebook or Instagram and use the hashtag #TBD2013 and tweet us @TBDAfrica so we can see it.
