The Germiston SPCA is a registered non-profit organisation.<\/p>\n
The society does not receive funding from the government and relies solely on donations from members of the public.<\/p>
To ensure that it can continue protecting the best interests of the animals in its jurisdiction, the SPCA is appealing to the public to donate to its cause.<\/p>\n
The Germiston SPCA has drawn up its 2019 wish list and is appealing for help to fulfil these wishes.<\/p>
