5B REACH FOR A DREAM INTERVIEW_20 MAY

GUEST: JULIA SOTIRIANAKOS IS THE CEO OF THE REACH FOR A DREAM FOUNDATION  + This morning on 5 Breakfast, we’re talking fuzzy slippers, big dreams, and one of South Africa’s most heartwarming annual campaigns. + Slipper Day is back on 29 May 2026, and for the past 15 years, Reach For A Dream has been bringing South Africans together to support children living with serious and life-threatening illnesses. + Since 1988, the foundation has fulfilled nearly 30,000 dreams — from children meeting their heroes, to flying in planes, to stepping into their dream careers for a day. And this year, the goal is massive: R15 million to help continue making those moments happen. + Joining us this morning is the CEO of Reach For A Dream, Julia Sotirianakos, to talk about the power of dreaming, the impact these moments have on children and families, and why something as simple as wearing slippers can help change lives.
