For many years Casual Day has been a steady favourite on the calendar of many
of South Africa’s businesses, with some corporates sponsoring stickers for their
entire staff complement as a corporate social investment initiative. Approximately
4 500 companies, 100 schools and 400 organisations rendering services
to persons with disabilities are participating. This year Casual Day takes place
on Friday, 6 September 2019. The theme for this year is “Time to Shine with
Persons with Disabilities”.
Casual Day is one of the fundraising events that we participate in every year in
order for us to raise much-needed funds towards our cause. We are appealing for
your kind participation in this fundraising event by purchasing Casual Day stickers.
You may purchase stickers, as many as you want, at the price of R10.00 per
sticker. Of this amount, MDF will receive R4.00 per sticker. You can purchase
your stickers at your nearest branch.
We hope that you will be able to assist us as your participation will go a long way towards making a difference in the
lives of our members.
