Mashaba said her extended family consisted of 13 members, in the form of six adults and seven children, who all survived on the government’s child support grant.

Mamelodi Sundowns Supporters Club national coordinator, Cedric Moela, said the Mashaba’s plight was identified during the distribution of food parcels on a previous visit.

The digging of the foundation was completed, and preparations for the construction of the house were to start shortly.

Bela-Bela Men’s Prayer Group leader, Joseph Makhubela, said the ecumenical movement would facilitate the processes going forward.

Food parcels were also donated during the latest visit.

It was also a special day for Stephina Mashaba, who was pleasantly surprised with a cake and soft drinks on the occasion of her turning 14.
