Thousands receive warmth as Moti Cares Foundation distributes 2 500 blankets in Tsakani
Tsakani – The Moti Cares Foundation donated 2 500 blankets during their annual Blanket Winter Drive at the Faranani Multi-Purpose Centre on Saturday.
Since the beginning of winter, the foundation has been committed to providing warmth and comfort to those in need across various communities.
Zunaid Moti, founder of Moti Cares, launched the drive by reaching out to South Africans through his social media pages, inviting them to nominate charities in need.
This approach attracted numerous deserving organisations and individuals, helping ensure the initiative's wide reach and meaningful impact.
The foundation aims to distribute 20 000 blankets in total this winter.
So far, the initiative has touched the lives of many underprivileged individuals and families, offering relief during the harsh cold months.
Local resident Pinky Lebese, who runs the Kwadutsa HIV Program from her home, was invited to bring beneficiaries from her organisation.
'I mainly work with children who have been orphaned when their parents die from HIV and Aids. I also have a few older people that we assess regularly to ensure they are in good health,' she explained.
Lebese referred 350 people to receive donations at the event. Attendees also received warm soup, loaves of bread and snacks for the children.
