CHARITY SHOPS OPERATING ILLEGALLY

Please be aware of Charity Shope operating illegally and ask for a certified copy of the NPO certificate.

Unfortunately there are too many scammers out there. You cannot open a CHARITY shop if it is for your own benefit! I am apalled that people can actually do such a thing and in the interim give hard working Charity Organisations a bad name and put us at risk. We have been around for 67 years and every cent raised at our Charity shop goes towards the education of children with Autism.

    • Terrible that one should have to check these things out, but too many dishonest people out there :(
      Just want the public to know so that they don’t get taken for a ride and ensure that the resale of goods goes towards a deserving charity/organisation/beneficiary and not in someones back pocket.
