Check out what’s happening down at the Reashoma Grounds! Our friends at Protea North Masters are putting in the work, but they need a little assist from the community to get this pitch back to its former glory. ⛏️

Between the "mud bath" leaks and those stubborn thorn trees, the field is looking more like a water park than a soccer pitch! 🛑💦 But we aren't just watching from the sidelines.

We’re backing the "Buy-a-Meter" Campaign! For just R100, you can sponsor one square meter of the rehabilitation. It’s a small play that makes a massive impact for our youth and veteran ballers. 🏆

How you can help right now:
1. Watchthe video to see the "groundwork" in action! 🎥
2. Donate a meter (or two!) using the details in the clip. 💳
3. Share this post! Let’s go viral and reach every soccer fan in Soweto and beyond! 🔄📢

Drop a "⚽️" in the comments if you've got our back! Let’s reclaim our home ground!

Good day bangani...as we enter the new year we would like to send a shout out to our local school Khuthala Primary School for letting us handover brand new school shoes to their precious school learners. This comes as a special gift to uplift our youth during these hectic back-to-school moments. A very special to our team members Phumza Mangali and Karabo Karabo for lending a hand in this initiative. Here’s to beautiful 2026 of more great things to come.

The year is off to great start, so today we reflect on the amazing developments from our 2025 SDR (Stigma & Discrimination Reduction) Program. We had great insights shared with our strategic minds in our Steering Committee - we look forward to more exciting activities and interventions that will stem from our sessions. Thank you to all members who attended. In the same vein, our peer navigators were completely inspired to move our services closer to the vulnerable and overlooked...including PWUDs. We also connected with the MEC Faith Mazibuko on taking a deep dive into services the community can offer to People Who Use Drugs. Shout to our tireless team Karabo Karabo Neo Makutu Mathikga sesinyi Prince Peter Thulare Phambili to more health in the community.
