And last but not least

Thank you to my fellow committee members, Carin de Jager, Ri-Han de Jager-Craven and Jacques Marais for all your hard work. Johann, you have stood by me during this event with unwavering support. This project has its challenges, but you have remained patient and present. I am so appreciative. One thing is sure: we became masters of changing venues and routes on number 99 – not by choice but due to circumstance.

It has been rewarding to deliver food to much-needed soup kitchens in support of the town of Knysna, its residents and surrounding areas over the past two years. We intend to maintain these efforts to make a positive difference. To honour one of the organisers during our annual VIP Dinner for her selflessness and what she does for her community, was also a very special experience.

If you would still like to contribute artwork or donations, please feel free to contact us at office@pinkloeriefoundation.com.

We are delighted to announce that the Pink Loerie Mardi Gras and Arts Festival 2023 will take place from Friday, 28 April 2023 to Monday, 1 May 2023.

Kind regards, Pink Loerie Organising Committee

Pink Loerie ™ and Pink Loerie Mardi Gras and Arts Festival™ are both trademarked.
