The Jigsaw Puzzle Association of South Africa (JIPASA) has kick started the 2015 Puzzle Donation Drive, in support of a unique June 16 event. Initiated in 2014, in honour of South Africa’s Youth Day – the Soweto Puzzle Festival serves as a reminder of what June 16 is all about.
So, in June 2015 – sixteen (16) Soweto preschools and four (4) Montessori preschools from outside Soweto will be invited to send a team of two children each, to come and play puzzles with us. In preparing for the 2015 Soweto Puzzle Festival, JIPASA is calling on individuals and companies to get behind the Puzzle Donation Drive.
We are inviting South Africans to clear their garages of old wooden jigsaw puzzles and donate them to the 2015 Puzzle Festival. Even if the puzzle being donated is missing a couple of pieces. Donated puzzles can be posted to:
PO Box 61190
Marshalltown
