#CasualDay - Let's support people with disabilities in SA | News Article

Together with Mickey, Minnie and all their friends at DISNEY we invite you to stand Side by Side for Equality this CASUAL DAY. Make a note and get ready for the 3rd of December 2020.


You can purchase an actual sticker or a digital sticker for R20 which enables you to dress up and support their theme "Side by side for equality". 

I chat to Charmaine van Niekerk from the Association for People with Disabilities in Bloemfontein about Casual Day, what the funds are used for and how you can get your digital sticker. Listen to the podcast below. 



As a prominent rights-based civil society network and owner of the Casual Day project, the NCPD has been staying true to disability rights since 1939. They have learnt that nothing we do on our own can ever be as valuable as the things we do together. 

The Casual Day Theme for 2020 is… SIDE BY SIDE for Equality.



Side by side for equality, Persons with Disabilities can achieve full and equal enjoyment of all human rights and freedoms. Side by side for equality, we can multiply each other’s efforts and transform South Africa into a truly inclusive and equal society!

To celebrate the spirit of standing steadfast with friends, family and Persons with Disabilities, Casual Day welcomes a new friend to the fold. They are extremely excited to announce that this year Casual Day will be standing SIDE BY SIDE with DISNEY’s MICKEY & FRIENDS!

You heard right! This year Disney is on board!



We couldn’t be happier having the world’s most famous mouse and his friends standing SIDE BY SIDE with Persons with Disabilities.

Buying a sticker and dressing up for Casual Day is always a jol, but doing it SIDE BY SIDE is true friendship. Seeing how your individual contributions add up, resulting in the most amazing collective result? That’s what we call … MAGIC.

Running alongside Disney’s Mickey and Friends #STAYTRUE campaign, Casual Day invites you to dress up with your besties, your co-workers, your partners and the peeps who’ve got your back.



What to Wear

On December 3rd 2020 dress the part: Pair up with polka dots, Be the Mickey to someone’s Minnie, double-down as Donald & Daisy, or be goofy like Goofy – SIDE BY SIDE!



This year Twinning is Winning so create outfits that make sense when you are standing with your “twin” or your team. Express yourself and help us raise funds to promote and protect the rights of Persons with Disabilities.



The Casual Day colour for 2020 is #TRUEBLUE and you can get an actual sticker or a digital sticker.
