Different foundations came through to celebrate Mandela Day with the needy in Lynnville on Sunday.

Sport Wrap Foundation has hosted a soup drive for the needy and the foundations that took part in this initiative were Khula Sande Post Rehabilitation Programme and Eyasa Foundation.

port Wrap Foundation is the mother body of Sport Wrap Academy and it is based in Lynnville, which is teaching and introducing youngsters to football school from the age of five years to teenage.

In the proceedings of this heart-warming soup drive, the founder of Sport Wrap Foundation Trevor Dube has spoke mouthful wards,

“this is not about Mandela Day, but it’s about giving back to the community, giving back to the needy or disadvantaged people, therefore we have to make each day a Mandela Day.”

The soup drive was most dedicated to people who are under the influence of drugs, especially in Lynnville and Ackerville.

Mr Dube told WITBANK NEWS that as Sport Wrap they will continue to engage with different foundations to provide for these lost souls, because he is able to see that these deranged drug victims do appreciate and acknowledge that the community still cares about them and is willing to help them against all odds as they are battling with the toxic drug addiction.

Some addicts said they would love to come back into the society and to play a pivotal role even though they seemed to fall deep into depression and believing that drugs can heal their pain and sorrows.

Community members couldn’t stop praising these different foundations for providing pure love to the drug addicts and the needy.

Charmaine Lamula, who is the founder of Khula Sande Post Rehabilitation Programme said she works almost everyday with the addicts, and she knows how they think and how they do things, therefore as Khula Sande they want to encourage community members to love their lost brothers and sisters because they need to be loved too, despite the wrong choices that they made in life, they still do need love and guidance.

She added that these addicts are also important and they need to be loved in order to quit the addiction of drug.

Charmaine encourages people to get hold of her on the following numbers: 067 636 6022 or to visit her in Lynnville Municipal Offices ERF 5546, Room 1.
