Bikers’ nappy run proceeds go to worthy causes

THREE organisations in Durban South were the recipients of the annual nappy run hosted and organised by the Christian Motorcycle Association (CMA) on Saturday, 12 August.

For about 17 years the CMA has been collecting nappies and distributing these to worthy organisations.

This year the chosen organisations were blessed with much needed nappies, not only for babies but adults who are in dire need of it. Child Welfare’s Edith Benson Children’s Home, TAFTA’s John Dunn house and Baby Hope House were the grateful recipients of the nappies collected by members of 20 motorcycle clubs who participated in the fun-filled charity event.

President of CMA, Johan van Eck said it’s good to see so many clubs taking part as they have done annually for the past 17 years.

“We encourage the members to get involved in charities and to make a difference, even if it means changing one life at a time. The stereotype behind motorbike clubs is outdated. Many people think us bikers are rough and tough but really, we are just fathers, mothers and children of God. We use our passion of biking to bring joy in the lives of the needy,” said van Eck.
