What is Slipper Day?
Slipper Day is an annual fundraising campaign created by Reach For A Dream, a South African non-profit organization that fulfills the dreams of children battling severe illnesses. The idea is simple: purchase a Slipper Day sticker for R20, wear your favourite pair of slippers to school or work, and show your support. The funds raised from sticker sales help the foundation grant magical experiences to children who need hope and joy the most.
Since its launch, Slipper Day has grown into a nationwide movement, uniting schools, businesses, and individuals under a shared goal making dreams come true.
