According to Thabo Boshomane, the founder and owner of Makoya Shandis Car Wash and Shisanyama, the purpose of the Mandela Day Giving Back to the Community (as the event was named) was to entertain elderly people and orphans from all over Ekurhuleni.
“Our business might be based in Vosloorus, but I am aware that the community members who support us are from all over Ekurhuleni.
