Update 23rd March 2020

Update posted by Mandy Day

I have been trying to raise funds or materials to help a man save his home. This is not a once off for me - I would liked to grow this initiative and started helping more fellow South Africans.

For starters I did not think that it would be this hard to raise funds for a good cause - but I guess there are so many good causes out there and people in need. I was hoping that even if a 1000 people donate R100 each that would give me R100 000 - which would complete the basic needs of this house and I could start on another.

Ideally - for my next home I would like to focus on a single working mom, so if you have anyone that you think could benefit from some assistance please email me a motivation. #singlemom

To big corporations out there - it does not have to be financial assistance - it could be legal advise, architectural ideas - Maintenance advise - it could be left over materials that you can not sell and would normally dump. Example - Paint, wood, bricks, sand, cement, tiles

Ideally the owner of the house has a green finger and it is his passion - so I would love donations of materials to make a grow tunnel (vegetables etc) - a bee hive and herb boxes. His house does already have an area made to make his own compost and lastly I would like to implement a worm farm. Any donations or advise around this would be greatly appreciated. #selfsustaining

I would also like to look at solar panels - I know this can be expensive, but adding this kind of value to his home makes an impact on his life - the value of his house and - 1 less person putting high demand on Eskom. #solarenergy

I know that money is tight and with the Corona Virus and all the restrictions - everyone is being penny wise and I totally understand that.

If you are unable to donate in any way shape or form - Following the Campaign - LIKE and SHARE my links - could make a huge difference and all just because you pushed a button.

I wish all the families and businesses out there all the best of luck through these hard times. This is a time where the country (the people of South Africa) needs to pull together and support each other - because the government aren't making much effort to improve the country let alone sustain it.

Thank you for reading my update and if you have ANY comments or feedback I would love to hear from you.

Mandy
