HCHS Backabuddy campaign update

The Harold Cressy High School learners are very excited* to be closing in on to 50% of the R100 000 target for the campaign. A huge *THANK YOU* to all those who have contributed and spread the word on their networks.

Please note that this is a CROWDFUNDING campaign and *ANY contribution,* no matter how modest it may be, is as important and valued.

The collective contribution of R10 000 from any class year will enable the donor class to have a *bench named after that year. We are pleased to advise that the Class of 1973 has collectively contributed about R8500 towards a bench thus far.

One last thing... the campaign is NOT confined to people who attended Harold Cress High School. You are encouraged to forward the link to anyone who you think would be inclined to support this initiative.
