UMBOGINTWINI Primary School recently celebrated its 111th birthday by paying it forward, so they surprised The Elders Voice KZN with a donation of food.
The school believes everyone matters and were grateful to be able to give back to the community. “As a pay-it-forward scheme, the children were asked to bring a non-perishable item to school. We care very deeply for our charitable organisations, and we try our best to support our community wherever possible,” said the school’s head of department, Kirsty Eustice.

After collecting all the non-perishable items, the school surprised the organisation by dropping them off. The founder of the non-profit organisation, Jo-ann Herbst, said, “What an amazing surprise being blessed with tinned food and non-perishables. This goes such a long way – we have no words – thank you to every learner who made this possible. To the school, we salute you.”
The Elders Voice KZN is an elderly community upliftment initiative established to assist in fighting for the rights of the aged, which allows them to live with dignity in their old age.
