Mandela Day 2019
Check out some of our amazing projects that we implemented for Mandela Day 2019. Thank you to all those who contributed to ensure the day was a success.
We are beyond thankful to Rheinette Oakland, Oakland Dairies, who donated milk, yogurt, and cheese. We handed over the items at various places; our Early Childhood Development Schools (ECDs), Lingelihle Old Age Home, and the homeless people in Montagu.
A big shout out to Sharon Hunlun and Ruan Hunlan who assisted in the cutting of the 42 kg donated cheese into smaller pieces, so that we were able to share with many families.
We are always so grateful for the wonderful contributions towards the works in our rural areas. Our heartfelt thanks to Herbert Bührer for the 5 rolls of lovely protein. To Johanna Kotze and LHL for their wonderful donation of fruit and vegetables. Our food packages for the homeless were more than filling thanks to the kind sharing hearts of our donors.
We made a lovely macaroni ‘n cheese, and sweet delicacies to serve with a fruit salad for our Lingelihle Old Age Home in Zolani, Ashton.
The delicious pot went to Olin Kiewietz, who ensures bush and street people get warm meals. To Sharon Hunlun, who cooks for many elders in Montagu, a Kenwood electronic machine was donated.
We are beyond proud of all you do to assist our support base in Montagu. You are our angels helping us to make a difference serving the homeless in Montagu.

New home for deserving youngsters

Going forward, may your life ahead be safe and stress-free. This man is forever helping RAM as much as we need hands. We are so glad we could help him at last.
Thank you for the awesome support to make this possible.

Fransie du Toit Primary trip to Cango Caves
Thank you Imagine Cruising SA & Imagine Holidays for transporting a farm school – Fransie du Toit Primary all the way from Montagu to Cango Caves in Oudtshoorn. Their lives have changed forever, for the better.
Thanks to Shoprite South Africa for the lovely Chicken Mayo sandwiches and bananas, Coca-Cola Peninsula Beverages for some cold drinks, and Oakland Dairies for some juice for our children.
The trip was followed by a lovely lunch. No need for words, the smiles, the loving eyes, their sincerity said it all. Were it not for your donations, they would not have experienced such a trip from outside their rural farm surrounds. Thank you for making extended and multiple contributions to make Mandela Day so special.
