Winter Dangers!!!
Further more we will be having a "safe winter" drive,
Where we will go around by schools, houses and informal settlements handing out brochures of safety tips regarding the danger of blankets near open fires, heaters and oil lamps, leaving heaters on or falling a sleep with candles, heaters, open fires and oil/paraffin lamp etc.
We will also explain the safety and the to do's and not to do's to the individuals who can't see or who are not able to read. we are also in the process of trying to get these brochures made in different languages so that it will be better understood when read in ones own language the same goes with finding volunteers who will assist us in explaining these tips in different languages
One of our goals with our "safe winter" project is to hand out non flammable blankets, if funds are available as these blankets do not come cheap.
