According to Lovemore Robson, the founder and director of the foundation, the foundation was founded with the mission to inspire community members to take ownership of their surroundings
“Our inspiration for Lovemore Friday comes from the belief that a clean community leads to happier, healthier residents. We want to foster a sense of responsibility toward the environment in which we live.”
Every Friday volunteers come together armed with gloves, trash bags, and determination to clean up Fourways streets and surrounding communities.
“The support we receive from Jackpot City allows us to make a tangible impact in just one day a week. We aim to expand our efforts beyond Fourways and Douglasdale, provided we have stable funding. We also received assistance from InstaProperti, which helps with clean up efforts on select days.” said Robson.
The combined resources of community businesses and passionate volunteers exemplify the importance of collective action in addressing local environmental issues.

Susan Harwood, from Bags of Love, also committed to providing refreshments for clean up volunteers. “We are incredibly grateful for Susan’s commitment to supporting our volunteers. Her generosity reflects the spirit of collaboration that drives Lovemore Friday,” said Robson.
The foundation encourages community members to embody kindness and humility while taking pride in their surroundings.
“We can all play a part in creating a cleaner environment, so we invite everyone to donate and support our initiatives. Your contributions help us sustain and expand our efforts to keep the community clean.”
