The PDSA are ecstatic to be the recipients of the 3rd prize in The Dis-Chem Foundation and 567 CapeTalk "Random Acts of Kindness Competition". The PDSA was nominated as one of the many worthy causes which people could vote for (via Facebook Like) and came 3rd to take home a prize of R30,000. A HUGE thank you to The Dis-Chem Foundation, 567 CapeTalk and breakfast show host - Aden Thomas.
Many of the people who turn to the PDSA are elderly, on a fixed pension, and living alone. They are often totally dependent upon their pets for companionship and affection. Others come to the PDSA when they're in financial difficulties, due to unemployment or family crisis. Nobody wants to see an animal suffer just because there's a shortage of money.
