THE Chic Mamas Do Care Durban team upgraded the Umzamo Day Care Centre with the proceeds generated through the sale of quality, pre-loved clothing at their boutique style shop in Westville.
The team of enthusiastic women, who believe in the importance of early childhood development (ECD), purchased a 12m converted container classroom to replace a dilapidated wooden cabin.

Chic Mamas Durban team coordinator, Jenny Du Bois said the new classroom provided a bigger and safer environment for the children to learn in. The addition of awnings and a well-planned outside play area has ensured the children have all-weather outdoor fun while they develop key motor skills.
Last week, a few of the Chic Mamas team put the finishing touches to a joyful mural that was sponsored by Capitec Bank.
Westville shop manager, Natalie Maccallum encouraged the Highway community to enjoy a unique Chic Mamas shopping experience at the boutique.

Du Bois conveyed the team’s gratitude to all of their supporters and appealed to the Highway community to donate quality, pre-loved clothing.
“The Chic Mamas team has a number of significant projects planned going forward and the donation of clothing assists us in making a difference in many communities,” she said.
The store is situated at 2 Cedar Road, Westville and is open from Tuesday to Friday from 10:00 till 16:00, and on Saturdays, from 10:00 to 13:00.
