Ward 16, 21 teams celebrate Mandela Day with acts of kindness

Both families received food to last them for days.

In a heartfelt act of compassion as part of Mandela Day celebrations, the Ward 16 Task Team dedicated their time to cleaning the home of the Nene family in the Shayamoya area of Ntabamhlophe.

This act of kindness went beyond cleaning, as the team also handed over a food parcel to the struggling family, generously donated by the Al-Imdaad Foundation. The mother, who is unemployed and raising a three-year-old child, is not receiving any social grant. The family survives with the help of supportive neighbours.

Meanwhile, on the same day, the Ward 21 War Room team visited the Mlambo family home in Imbabane, Weenen. The team did some cleaning up and provided much-needed support in the form of groceries, a sponge mattress, and a blanket.
