Over the past year, PhysSoc has been involved in several outreach projects, with our annual CareKit Drive being the highlight. 🌟💙

We have collected donations through our events, from students, and the generous support of various schools.

We are especially proud of our growing partnerships with Saheti and Randburg High School, both of which implemented the CareKit Drive within their communities

We also extend our heartfelt thanks to Kingsmead College for their contributions earlier this year. We deeply value the support of all schools that make this initiative possible.

All donations have been handed over to the BHCC, JPCC, and the Children’s Home.

We look forward to receiving even more donations next year as we continue supporting the
Johannesburg community! 🤩

PhysSoc is proud to have supported the BHCC throughout the year through our annual CareKit Drive 💙🤍
Your generous donations will go directly toward supporting individuals both in and out of hospital.

Our committee also spent the year crocheting squares 🧶, which the BHCC will transform into beautiful blankets to be donated alongside the CareKits.

We were honoured to attend the BHCC’s end-of-year meeting, gaining meaningful insight into how we can continue uplifting our Johannesburg community together.

Thank you to every student, individual, and school who contributed. Your kindness truly makes a difference!

A beautiful close to Mental Health Awareness Month…where creativity met courage, and every artwork became a voice for mental wellbeing 💚🎗️

Thank you to everyone that joined us for the Art for Mental Health Exhibition 2025. We look forward to seeing you at the next one!

In honour of World Mental Health Day 🧠💚 we are proud to share a glimpse of the Art for Mental Health exhibition 🎨, in partnership with the Adler Museum and Wits Department of Psychiatry.

This year’s theme is Glimmer: the small moments that bring us back to joy, calm, or safety✨

In the midst of ongoing challenges, especially in healthcare , let’s take a moment to notice our glimmers whether it’s a hug, a coffee break or a quiet breath.

The exhibition is still open for viewing, with artworks for sale. Proceeds go towards outreach initiatives. 🖼️🤍
