Home takes shape for destitute family of seven in Mpophomeni

Mkululi and his group of volunteers arrived at Mpophomeni on Monday with a truck carrying the bricks and building supplies to build a three-bedroom home for the family.

Speaking to TimesLIVE on Tuesday, he said his company, which manufactures and supplies protective clothing, had received a number of donations in addition to the R10,000 his company donated towards the project.

He said there had also been donations from as far afield as the UK and Botswana.

White said during their visit on Monday, they donated groceries, clothes and blankets to the Ngubane family.

Three quotations have been obtained from builders for the construction of the house.

“However, we are still short of some of the building material, including building sand, plaster sand and roofing material. Our plan is to build a three-bedroom house with a lounge,” said White.

He said TV actor Tony Kgoroge had visited the home with him.

“He has spoken to a recording company, which has seen talent in the girl. The company has offered to record her. However, we want to do this in a way that her school work is not affected,” said White.

White and his group of volunteers will visit the family again on Saturday to oversee the building of the house.
