Addicts Voice on August 26 joined hands with South Crest Residents Association during a clean-up aimed at keeping their suburb tidy.
They cleaned up the suburb’s parks, and the spruit while also picking up litter on the streets.
They managed to pick up at least 160 garbage bags of litter and dump them at the South Hills dumping site.
According to Annetjie Grobler of Addicts Voice, this was a social upliftment programme that enabled members of Addicts Voice to show locals they were willing to start at the bottom to make a meaningful difference.
“If God gives you a little, He enables you to get more if He sees that you can work with the little that you have. In collaboration with the South Crest Residents Association, we picked up litter and there is not one paper or rubbish lying around in South Crest,” she said.
She said the initiative aimed to uplift their members and show them they are valuable and needed in the community.
Grobler also thanked one of their members, Alf Barkley, for dumping the rubbish.
