[WATCH]: Mayors unite to assist the vulnerable

The project was headed by KwaZulu-Natal MEC for Social Development, Nonhlanhla Khoza.

Newcastle Mayor, Dr Ntuthuko Mahlaba and Amajuba District Mayor, Dr Musa Ngubane continue to be at the frontline of aid relief for vulnerable families.

In a recent partnership programme with KZN MEC for Social Development, Nonhlanhla Khoza, both mayors united to donate food and warm blankets to those in desperate need, ahead of an icy winter.

The delegation visited the CCYC Snethemba Youth Centre in Fairleigh and the Monte Vista shelter for the homeless.
