Somizi has donated 20 scientific calculators to Grade 12 kids after a teacher went on social media to ask anyone to help her pupils.
The teacher took to Twitter and shared that she was looking for anyone who could donate the much-needed calculators and the kind-hearted Somizi responded to her plea. He first asked the tweep how much each calculator costs.
The tweep said they go for R260 on Takealot and the generous SomSom said he would donate all 20 of them. Somizi replied:
"Okay cool, I'll donate all 20... My PA will be in touch with you to get your details. Well done to you for doing this."

In other entertainment news, Briefly.co.za reported that Somizi has decided that he is going to help local businesses in the country. Taking to social media, Somizi let his followers know that he will be posting promotional content on his page weekly in March.
What Somizi aims to do with this is for local businesses to gain attraction from Mzansi citizens, thus growing their companies even further. Somizi shared an email address in his caption that people can use when sending through their information.
"Every Tuesday until the end of March, I'm promoting local businesses on my page for free," said Somizi.
Somizi asked that anyone who wants their company to be promoted by him should send through the relevant information about their company, such as what the company specialises in. Even though he's doing his best to help, Somizi let people know that he probably won't be able to share every single business he gets in his inbox.
The Idols SA judge however just wants his fans to know that he will have tried his best to assist.
