Thank you, neighbours!
For our first ever MRA Melville Mandela Day drive, we managed to raise R7 350 from neighbours PLUS generous donations of:
- a new electric fence from Beagle Watch
- a repaired set of outdoor concrete steps and new stepping stones from Peter and the team at Inani Construction
- volunteer painters and handymen from the MRA, MSI and CREASS
all painting equipment from Melville Business Association - R4 500 for a new Jojo tank from Ebs (Six Cocktail Bar) on 7th Street
- 2 used computers from Julia on 6th Avenue
- and a pledge from Smoking Kills Bar to donate R18 from every cocktail they sold on the 19th of July
It’s been great to see the enthusiasm from the community, for the community! If you have a local charity/NGO you would like us to support for next year’s Melville Mandela Day drive, please get in touch with the MRA. And watch your inboxes and Facebook feeds for news on our next community event.
Thanks again!
