Solidariteit Helpende Hand Lambton ensured that the children at the Bertha Gxowa Hospital had a special Easter.<\/p>\n

The team visited the hospital\u2019s children\u2019s ward last Friday, March 25, to hand out Easter hampers and spend some time with the children.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

The hampers were filled with a selection of sweet treats, juice, chips, a balloon and came with a soft toy for the children to enjoy after the sweets were gone.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe appreciate the hospital allowing us to come and see the children,\u201d said chairman Yolanda Hall.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

The hospital staff on duty and the parents of the children also received some Easter treats.<\/p>\n

The team thanked their sponsors, Copper Canyon Spur, Dischem Carnival Mall and Fifers Bakery in Spartan.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are appealing to the community to get involved in our future projects,\u201d Hall said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll donations are welcome and arrangements can be made for collection.\u201d<\/p>\n
