The KZN floods wrecked the province, leaving many homeless and others facing great damage to their properties and belongings.

Being the caring and selfless man that he is, Mashawana and his team committed to helping three families have homes before Christmas. In just five weeks they were able to follow through on their promises.

Each home was built beautifully to the individual family’s needs. Going the extra mile, the homes were furnished and ready to be lived in.

Collen shared four posts on his Facebook page showing the handover of these homes. An emotional moment for them all, but what an incredible Christmas miracle!
