Klerksdorp Record, Klerksdorp - Mandela Day this year was very special for one lucky girl. Lucky Girl, an always smiling, popular young lady, is always walking the streets of Jouberton with a request list asking for donations. Amongst her wishes this year, was for a special birthday party.

Klerksdorp Record, Klerksdorp -Two Hinterland Klerksdorp cashiers, Chantal Poonasaib and Simone Morkel, together with the help of kind and generous customers, filled up four and a half trollies with groceries and other essentials in aid of Triest Training Centre for People with Intellectual Disabilities.

The Women’s Auxiliary of the Methodist Church celebrated Mandela Day by donating baby clothes to Thepong Hospital.  The MCO of Health was there together with the acting CEO of the hospital. Margaret Heylen, Pat Hoffman and Amelia Street are pictured with the donations.   

Sisters Ofentse and Lerato Padi put up a soup stall in Jouberton’s ext 6 on Mandela Day where they handed out oranges, snacks and clothes to passersby on the cold Sunday morning. For the two sisters it was a special day to give something from the ‘goodness of their hearts’. They used their own money to buy the supplies.
