“Two families were identified from eGame who needed assistance with different items. I took time to analyse the families and had conversations with them to gather their basic needs. Both the families raised their current concerns and I donated according to those. This was to ensure that families are not given things that they do not need which would be a waste in the long run. I donated household items, mattresses, clothes and food between the two families,” she said.

“I identified the families through word of mouth and with the help of some community members of eGame. One of the families is in need of donations to help build a home for the mother and her children. We would appreciate any form of assistance and donations from the public in that regard,” she said.
