"With business being slow, prices skyrocketing, and more and more people struggling to cope, the ABF is stretched to give support to all who need it," says Sharlene Vallance, ABF executive committee member.
"This pledge from The Roaring Mouse is a wonderful gesture and the ABF truly appreciates pledges of this nature," she adds.
"This may not be the greatest offer, but it comes from the heart," says The Roaring Mouse's Shirley van de Graaff.
"Our writers include an international award winner, creative director, former Loerie judge, university lecturer on the psychology of advertising, and two of the top direct response writers in the country," she adds.
