Reach For A Dream’s Slipper Day returns on 30 May 2025 for its 14th year.
With the purchase of a R20 sticker, you can sport your favourite fuzzy slippers all while helping to fulfil the dreams of children facing life-threatening illnesses.
“About 52% of our children can’t go to school because of their illness, because they’re in the hospital most of the time… Being sick and being in your slippers.”
– Julia Sotirianakos, CEO – Reach For A Dream Foundation
You can purchase the stickers from any participating retailers – Wimpy, Dischem, Baby City, Pick n Pay, Toys R Us, Krispy Kreme, the Crazy Store or Hushpuppies.
If you are sporting your sticker on Friday, pop into your nearest Wimpy for a free coffee or a hot chocolate for the kiddies.
