Dog Box 2022

The Kloof and Highway SPCA are busy gearing up for our 2022 Dog Box fundraiser which will be held on 27th May.

Over 40 people will be locked in our 24 socialisation run kennels for 24 hours from 12 noon on Friday 27 May until 12 noon on Saturday 28 May 2022 in an effort to raise much needed funds. These amazing inmates are taking up the challenge to raise bail of at least R10 000 and are doing this to make a difference for the animals in our community!

This is our eighth year hosting the Dog Box fundraiser and it has to be one of the most sociable and fun events of the year for our SPCA as well as a major fundraiser. We would like to invite our community to come along and join in on this exciting event by visiting the participants in their kennels and being a special part of our Dog Box.

The funds raised will be used in the Kloof and Highway SPCA’s ongoing fight against the prevention of cruelty to all animals. Our Hidden Treasures Marquee will be part of the action with a gorgeous display of items for sale at the venue of the Dog Box.

There will also be entertainment and refreshments on sale. On Saturday our reception will be open from 8am-12noon as normal and our Village Green will also be open as normal. So please help our inmates make their bail so that we can continue to help the animal that so need us at the moment.

Dog Box 2020 & Upcoming Events

Oct 1, 2020 | Events, Fundraiser, What's the Buzz?!

This year we had to think outside the box… and asked our participants to get creative and spend their 24 hours locked away at home.

A total of R208,548 was raised!! A massive thanks to everyone who donated towards our cause in preventing cruelty to animals. This was a virtual Dog Box with a difference.

This year has certainly brought about a lot of change and we had to ask our participants to literally think out of the box. Nothing could dampen the spirit of the participants and they really went out of their way to make their 24 hours as innovating and creative as possible to be able to raise their bail money of R10,000. Some of our staff were really creative and our Financial Manager, Drienie Englund spent her 24 hours in a horse trailer in what turned out to be a very comfy and warm space. Our Vet, Lauren Erasmus and Vet Nurse, Rivona Ramnanan spent their day in a stable, while Lara Mallory and Brigitte Ferguson settled down with our resident calf, Winter. Our Manager, Barbara Patrick, set up a lounger in the beautiful surrounds of her garden. This was her 6th Dog Box fundraiser making her one of the longest running contestants.

Our two frequent Dog Box participants, Leigh Corbett and Sonia Koenig spent their 24 hours in their cars only leaving for necessary breaks. Shane Cox and Pierre Venter-Maher deserve a mention for their unwavering commitment to every Dog Box and finally, Fiona Williams and Brenda Harding chose Giba Gorge as their venue. We thank them for their enthusiasm.

So 2020 Dog Box was virtual, but it proved to be a success and we thank every single inmate and every single supporter who chose to donate to this fundraiser. Thank you all so much.
