This event wasn’t just to socialise and celebrate being a woman – it was also a sanitary pad drive.

These two businesses, with the help of two other businesses, AB Westlink Aluminium and Ketani Construction, and the women who attended the event managed to collect approximately 2 000 pads to donate to one of the needy schools in the township.

With the aid of a draw, the school that was selected to receive the donation was Zimeleni Special School in the heart of Katlehong.

Beverley Zitha of Humula Mobile Spa and Massage said: “These four local businesses wanted to encourage other business owners in and around the community to lend a helping hand to the very schools educating our future leaders. If we as the community cannot take care of our own, who will take care of them?”
