Celebrity Bokang Montjane-Tshabalala was in Diepsloot recently to bring some joy to the area’s children.
The Former Miss South Africa winner and her husband Simphiwe Tshabalala were in Diepsloot Ext 6 to spread some kindness to the House of Dorah’s Lil Angels’ Playgroup as part of Shoprite’s Yellow Packet Challenge. The playgroup is for children aged between two and four who live in the area.
Shoprite is encouraging South Africans who have a little extra to share this winter to pay it forward by donating grocery bags filled with non-perishable goods to individuals and organisations in need.

With its Yellow Packet Challenge, which runs from 22 May until 9 July 2017, Shoprite is asking consumers to take hands with the retailer by filling a yellow packet with everyday essentials and giving it to someone less fortunate.
“It is incredible what can happen when people come together for a good cause, and we want to show that anyone has the capacity to give back and make a difference in their communities,” said Neil Schreuder, Shoprite’s marketing director.
Share this act of kindness on Shoprite SA’s Facebook page or on Twitter tagging @Shoprite_SA using the #YellowPacketChallenge hashtag and nominate a person or business to do the same. Shoprite will match every donation made with a donation of its own.
Bokang Montjane-Tshabalala is only one of the celebrities involved in this initiative. Other famous helping hands include Nomzamo Mbatha, Tol Ass Mo, Mafa Bavuma, Marc Lottering and Jo-Ann Strauss.
