The Nkosinathi Mbonani Foundation is dedicated to alleviating and uplifting communities and those in need. They believe so much in the spirit of giving as it is a reflection of love and selflessness.
“The spirit of giving in December is a celebration of love, selflessness, and compassion,” quoted Nkosinathi Mbonani the founder of the organisation.
Throughout 2024, the foundation partnered with different organisations, individuals, and businesses to fight against poverty in the communities of Kwatsaduza.
They have managed to provide pads to schools, fund small feeding programmes, and offer a helping hand where due.
On December 23, the organisation provided food and clothing to those that needed it most.
“The festive season allows us to learn the importance of harboring a character of generosity and why.
“Many people are unemployed and cannot enjoy the benefits of having new clothes, a proper feast on Christmas Day and there isn’t a better way to celebrate the festive season than through an initiative of giving to those in need.
“The magic of the festive season and Christmas Day isn’t just found under twinkling lights or in the shimmer of tinsel—it’s in the warmth of giving and sharing,” said Mbonani.
The foundation provided over 300 meals on the day. The aim was not only to address immediate community needs but also to foster long-term resilience and growth within communities.
