Two Non-profit organisations have joined forces to bring Christmas cheer to those less fortunate. #BrosDoMatter and Generational Hobo Homeless Drive will be hosting their first annual Christmas celebration at Church Square in the heart of the nation’s capital on Christmas Day.
On the day, the organisations will be distributing food and clothes to homeless people.This event comes just weeks after the death of the father of the Da Klan Foundation, Mokhulu Sibanyoni. #BrosDoMatter was launched by the foundation in 2019, under the leadership of Emma Sibanyoni.The NPO is committed to promoting the education, empowerment, rehabilitation, welfare and social justice of every man and boy child.
“The event comes as a tribute to the men who have made it possible for all these organisations to come alive. Through this event – The Celebration Of Christmas with Our Extended Families – we intend to outline the importance of the safety, health and the future of our homeless families,” said Sibanyoni.
“There has been a great neglect of men and boy children in South Africa as their welfare is ignored by many. Many people and organisations have come in to promote the welfare of girl children, leaving the men and the boy child behind. This has therefore left many South Africans ignorant on the rights, well-being, welfare and social justice of men and the boy child,” added Sibanyoni.
She said the collaboration with Generational Hobo Homeless Drive, led by SMU FM breakfast show host and musician Percy Sleash SA marked the first anniversary of the NPO. “This event intends to bring hope, smiles and happiness. In the middle of the pandemic, we are saying that we are thriving and willing to help change the lives of our families, “said Sibanyoni.
#BrosDoMatter is encouraging communities to assist in making a difference by donating any perishables, clothes, blankets or money to make the event a success.
