Yesterday, the 06 December 2024, was one great day well spent, we visited Ncedanani Care Centre, Mahhushu outside Hazyview. A centre looking after over 100 children cared and fed for daily by the Department of Social Development. Today was a day meant to celebrate end of the year, mini function was held and MSS NPC joined the celebration.

We gave out a few goodies to the children and made a few to smile, the pictures speak for themselves.

MOTHER TERESA ONCE SAID "ITS NOT HOW MUCH WE GIVE BUT HOW MUCH LOVE WE PUT INTO GIVING"

This day made us realize that we have amongst ourselves families who are so destitute and we need the collective effort to assist and support one another.
