Women on the Move spent 67 minutes spreading love in Buhle Park last Saturday.<\/p>\n

The charity, established in 2015, aimed at supporting the needy in South Africa\u2019s poverty-stricken neighbourhoods, celebrated Nelson Mandela\u2019s legacy by lifting the spirits of residents with valuable donations.<\/p>

In collaboration with the Vosloo Toy Club, Muse Trading and Grace M, the charity donated clothes, shoes, toys and staple foods to the crowd which had formed around them.<\/p>\n

\u201cI used to live in this area.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

\u201cSeeing community members struggle to make ends meet inspired me to lend a helping hand.<\/p>\n

\u201cTogether with the other women we decided to come together and tackle poverty across the country by donating the little that we can afford.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are constantly looking for ways to better the lives of our fellow South Africans,\u201d said Grace Mofokeng of Women on the Move.<\/p>\n

Residents were entertained with soulful jams and the men and women ran a soup kitchen to round off their 67 minutes with the young and old living in Buhle Park.<\/p>\n
