More ways to help


As we are a group of volunteers and have very limited infrastructure and resources, we are always in need of a helping hand. Here are a few ideas on how you can help or become involved:

  • Sign/setup a monthly Debit Order of any amount that you can afford. This helps us to be financially more stable and allows us to plan our commitments better;
  • Donate a bag of dog/cat food per month;
  • Offer to foster puppies or kittens or adult dogs;
  • Often we need help with transporting animals to new adoption homes in the surrounding area;
  • Offer to help work at a stall at markets or at a fundraising event, or at open adoption days;
  • Drop off your good second-hand books (novels), clothing and bric-a-brac at Chain on Main (Tulbagh) which we can resell to raise funds;
  • We always need a supply of washable blankets and towels at the foster homes (they don’t last long) and toys to occupy the dogs and cats.
  • We have a Whatsapp Group, Friends of Chain, which is the quickest way to communicate our needs or often a crisis. To be added to this group, please send your details to Nelia 082 899 2248.
  • You can help us every time you shop! Just sign up for your My School – My Planet – My Village card, and swipe at participating retailers.
