On Mandela Day, a time when locals are encouraged to give back, Nelia wanted to give more of herself in the spirit of the late great legend. She spent her time baking packs and packs of rusks, not for her business, but to donate to the Salvation Army Emmarentia Eventide Home. The kind act showcased her generosity and proved that her purpose goes far beyond making money.
