Buy a gift for a needy child this Christmas
“Our organisation is not politically or religiously affiliated with anyone. We support wherever there are children in need.”
Super Incredible Kids of South Africa, an NPC from Centurion, aims to help bring joy and love to a child in need this Christmas.
Carmen Mocke (38) director, is one of three founders of the organisation, and a resident of Midstream.
“Residents will see our Christmas trees in Centurion Lifestyle mall and at the SPAR in Midstream. The process is quite simple to follow.
“A tag on the tree represents a child in need. Residents must select a tag and purchase a gift. Return the gift to customer care, or to the volunteer gift wrapping station.”
Mocke said this year gifts are going to safe houses, as well as a children’s home. This is the fourth year that they host Christmas trees at shopping centres for the benefit of less-fortunate children.
“Residents could even buy items such as clothing and toiletries as gifts, it would be appreciated by the children.
“Our organisation is not politically or religiously affiliated with anyone. We support wherever there are children in need.”

Mocke said she started out in 2015 presenting cooking lessons at a retail store.
“We involved children from the Louis Botha children’s homes. We later hosted team building events in co-operation with companies and organisations such as Solidarity Helping Hand.
“The need among these children was so dire, that we decided to register a NPC in 2018. Since then that has been our focus.”
Mocke said today they support children from safe houses and children’s homes in Centurion and Pretoria, and assist approximately 800 children living on the street.
She urged residents to open their hearts and their hands to spare these children a thought this coming festive season.
“It doesn’t cost an arm and a leg to make a difference in a child’s life. If everyone assists with what they have to share, it makes a huge impact in the lives of these kids.”
