Last week, local hearts were warmed by the Caxton Cares blanket drive, a campaign that’s become a winter tradition in Amanzimtoti. The initiative, spotlighted by South Coast Sun, is a beautiful reminder that when a community comes together — even small efforts can make a big difference.
And right here at Pahla Centre, we’re proud to share that one of our very own tenants is doing their part to support this mission.
Serenity Charity Shop: Where Your Donations Keep Giving
Located in the heart of the centre, Serenity Charity Shop is more than just a place to find pre-loved treasures. Every item sold helps fund community projects, support local families, and now — contribute directly to blanket drives like this one. Over the past week, Serenity has been collecting warm clothing, knitted squares, and full blankets, encouraging shoppers to donate or buy in support of the cause.
“It’s not just about second-hand goods,” says a Serenity volunteer. “It’s about second chances — for people and for items that still have a lot of love to give.”
Whether you’re decluttering your home or looking for a way to give back, Serenity Charity Shop is a perfect place to start.
Small Acts, Big Warmth
This kind of story is exactly why Pahla Centre exists — to support locals, uplift our community, and be more than just a shopping stop.
If you’d like to contribute to the blanket drive, visit Serenity Charity Shop this week or drop off warm items at the designated collection box in-store.
Together, we make winter a little warmer — one stitch at a time. 🧶💛
