“As you can see, the home that I have worked so hard for is burnt to the ground. My daughter’s school material and her new laptop are also gone. We have nothing.
“She will be giving birth soon and all that we collected for the baby’s arrival has gone up in flames. Even the clothes on my back have been graciously given to me by my neighbours and sisters-in-law. I have nothing,” laments Catherine.
Catherine and her family welcome any sort of donation or assistance that will help them as they come to terms with what has happened and try to get their lives back to normal. To help, contact Catherine on 083 550 7788.
