Last month a fire raged through part of the Kya Sands settlement destroying many personal belongings of the people living there.
It came to the attention of the DA Ward councillor Matome Mafokwane that there was a dire need for shoes and socks as a result of this fire.
Therefore, for the Mandela day 67 minutes, the DA Northways Branch in conjunction with Ward 115 and our neighbouring Ward 96 decided to collect shoes and socks as tribute to Madiba.
The project is planned over seven days starting from Mandela Day Friday the 18th July.
