The secret of living is giving

A better life to all the people’s needs

 

“Giving is not just about making a donation, it is about making a difference in someone’s life,” said co-founder of I am Ministry, Elize van Niekerk.

On Wednesday, 22 August, members of the Ministry visited Tshepang Programme for Orphaned and Vulnerable Children, and donated food and clothes to the children and volunteers at the facility.

The children’s faces lit up when they saw the visitors and the donations, and sang a song to say thank you.

I am Ministry, situated in Florida, is a non-profit organisation that solely relies on the support, donations and sponsorship from the public. It is a multi-cultured organisation and does outreaches in various locations, providing food, clothes, blankets and mattresses to residents of informal settlements, the homeless, families in need and old age home residents.

“We appeal to your kindness to support our quest by contributing towards making life better for all the people in need,” said Elize.
