#TBD2017 – Kings offer Tickets for Blankets

12 April 2017 By Alan Straton

Twitter Blanket Drive 2017The Southern Kings have joined forces with the Twitter Blanket Drive (#TBD2017).

In an endeavour to continue to give back to the communities that have supported the team over the years, the Kings joined the Twitter Blanket Drive this year with the aim of playing a crucial role in ensuring the less fortunate are kept warm throughout the cold winter. The beneficiaries of the drive will be Operation Shoebox and other nominated organisations.

Blankets can be dropped off at the  Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium, Algoa FM, Evolution Mixed Martial Arts, Boomtown, and Baywest Mall from now until  Saturday, 29 April 2017.

“Drop a blanket – pick a ticket”

For every blanket donated, the donor will receive a ticket to the Southern Kings’ match against the Melbourne Rebels at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium on 29 April 2017.

Passionate about Port Elizabeth and definitely NOT packing for Perth. Alan's ethos is epitomised in the words of Nelson Mandela; "I have fought against white domination and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the idea of a democratic and free society. If need be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die." See more articles by Alan.
