Winterwarming Siyakhathala giving back to the community
To commemorate Youth Month on the 16th of June 2017, all Plett youth were invited to participate in an initiative aimed at fighting poverty and bringing happiness to the faces of under-privileged children.
Youth from all over Plett donated toiletries, bedding, clothes and foods of their choice – such as cans of beans, peas, chakalaka, packets of soup, sanitary towels, shoes and even blankets.
The Hlomelang Development Agency then presented hampers to their chosen beneficiaries:
- Look & Learn Educare
- Home of Angels Educare
- Philiso educare
- Selected individuals from within the community
Beneficiaries attended a special event in Kwanokuthula to receive their hampers. One of the beneficiaries felt overwhelmingly happy, as she had expected to receive one hamper, but instead received five – a lovely surprise.
The event was a huge success and the Hlomelang Development Agency is looking forward to their next program, which is scheduled for the 18th of July 2017 – Mandela Day!
