POSTING A PARCEL?

Did you know that every parcel
Knit-a-square receives incurs a mandatory handling fee of $3.75 US, charged by the
South African Customs & Excise?
When mailing a package,
it is critical to write 
BONA FIDE GIFT FOR CHARITY, NO COMMERCIAL VALUE on your parcel and a declared value of $0 on your Customs Slip so KAS doesn't incur additional postage fees.
Are you sending from the U.S.? Please DO NOT insure your package.

KAS SA has been having a busy, productive few weeks in the barn … and this week collected a REALLY large amount of post, a reminder of days gone by when the van was crammed full !
Well done, knitters !


A few weeks back we had a young visitor from Japan who came bearing gifts ! She was in SA for 5/6 days, worked hard with us all morning and flew home next day thank you Rena.

"CreateCare Global has set itself two tasks. The first is physical: to bring hope, support and comfort to children for whom poverty and loss are everyday tormentors. The second, and in our view equally important, is to spread the message to the world."
