# Charity Begins With Me has launched its annual Beanie Drive earlier than usual to provide warmth to children in need. This is in response to Johannesburg’s unusually gloomy weather, with weeks of rain and chilly evenings. According to founder Stephen Ferreira, the drive usually begins distributions in June. This year, he aims to start by the end of April and has welcomed donations of beanies and wool. Drop-offs can be made in Fairland, Johannesburg, or via PUDO.
