A local non-profit organisation pleads for donations to help clean neighbourhood
FOURWAYS – Despite the dwindling and shortage of donations, the organisation and its volunteers will keep on working hard to keep Johannesburg North neighbourhoods clean and tidy.
Committed and dedicated hardworking volunteers from a non-profit organisation collected more than 100 bags of litter as part of their cleaning campaign.
The Live Life Always (LLA) organisation that advocates for a clean, safe and litter-free environment was formed last year by Sean Williams together with his long-time friend Lovemore Robson amid the Covid-19 pandemic outbreak.
Led by Robson, a group of 10 volunteers of the organisation braved cold and drizzling weather conditions on August 28 to clean up along William Nicol Drive and the streets around the Fourways Crossing precinct.
Robson said despite the dwindling, and shortage, of donations the organisation and its volunteers will keep on working hard to keep northern Johannesburg neighbourhoods clean and tidy.
“We are driven by passion and love for the environment and what we do. We will continue working hard to ensure public places and local neighbourhoods are clean despite dwindling sponsors. Today we’ve collected more than 100 bags of litter around this precinct alone.”
He appealed to the local business community to extend a helping hand to the organisation saying, “We call on members of the community and local business to support our initiative by donating funds in order to support our volunteers. We are currently cleaning for only three days a week and we want to move to five days a week.”
