We have donated a used washing machine, tumble dryer, and dishwasher to the Leratong Old Age Home in Hammanskraal, Pretoria. This home, among the poorest of the poor, receives no government support and relies on donations from you and I.
The donation will ease the daily burden on elderly staff while also improving living conditions for its residents, ensuring cleaner clothing, bedding, and a more dignified environment.

The Wayne Mathew Naidoo Foundation recently brought joy to 28 abused and abandoned children at the Lakehaven Child & Youth Care Centre. Each child received a personalized toiletry pack, with additional hygiene supplies donated, providing the orphanage with the essential resources needed to care for its children during the upcoming months. The donation also included groceries, soccer balls, netball balls and a pizza treat for everyone, including the five caretakers.
As Durban braces for its sweltering summer, these essential contributions offer timely relief while also providing vital opportunities for exercise, teamwork, and enjoyment. We’re honored to enhance the well-being of this incredible orphanage, one smile at a time.
