Hey guys, I want to do a collection of any animal food to give away to animal based charaties. I've done one before and was able to raise about 50 bags of food for an SPCA. I am in the Joburg area. If anyone has any suggestions on where i should collect for, please assist.

Our pick and pay has a trolly outside their entrance with food collection for spca and every month there are loads of food in it.
 
The easiest way would be to get an organization like the Rotary Club involved. Through them you can run a competition for all the schools in the area to see who can give the most amount of animal food. I did this when I was living in Middelburg, and we managed to collect 2 bakkie loads full of food that was given to 3 different SPCA organizations.

Ive never been there but i do love cats... my last donation was to Edenvale SPCA because of the fact that they saved, rehabilitated,adopted and looked after an abused dog even though he was in his final days...
 
I'd rather not get involved, we are part of the SA guide dogs and we buy all the food the puppy we are fostering as well. So technically we already have a fixed donation to the SA guide dogs so i feel comfortable with our contribution as is. But if any mygamers want to help out the SA guide dogs association has nice big wish list for their dogs.
