The Tancredi Foundation joins forces with New Life Global Church to fuel vehicles for free
Together with New Life Global Church, the Tancredi Foundation blessed 150 people with fuel vouchers to give much needed petrol to their thirsty cars, helping community members fight the rising cost of living.
In an inspiring display of generosity to the community of Randburg, the Tancredi Foundation embarked on a remarkable initiative that has provided free fuel to over 150 vehicles in the area.

The initiative was designed to assist motorists and motorcyclists facing financial challenges, particularly in light of hiking fuel prices and economic pressures. Residents began arriving early in the morning, eager to benefit from the free fuel vouchers that were being distributed.
The event was held at the Engen garage on Malibongwe Drive in Kya Sands, and attracted a diverse crowd from the community, as well as passersby who were happy to line up to receive free petrol.
Many expressed their gratitude, highlighting how the rising cost of living had made it increasingly difficult to afford basic necessities, including fuel for their vehicles.
Vincent Maseko, a spokesperson for New Life Global Church, said, “A church has, for the longest time, been painted as a place where people give, but as the Tancredi Foundation, together with New Life Global, we believe in being a monument of solutions and a beacon of hope to our communities.”

The founder of the foundation, Miz Mzwakhe Tancredi, explained that he understands how challenging times are for many in the community, thus, he made it possible for this project to happen with the aim of lifting some of the financial weight off the community members.
“Our goal is to support those in need and help them stay mobile, whether it’s for work, school, or medical appointments. The free fuel initiative stands as a testament to the power that the church has in their communities. Reminding everyone that even in challenging times, kindness and generosity can drive change.”
This is one of many initiatives that the Tancredi Foundation conducted within the community of Randburg, which included giving blankets, and, more recently, giving groceries to over 200 elderly community members in Cosmo city.
