The foundation held the drive to commemorate the Easter holidays, to donate Easter eggs to different centre in Eldorado Park.
This was done to remind children in orphanages that they are not forgotten and they can still enjoy Easter holidays like everyone else.
Alicia Solomons, founder of the Sisterhood Foundation staid, “We run an Easter drive every year, where we send a little love and kindness to children.
“We supply Easter eggs, teddies, socks and blankets to orphanages, old age homes and other community centres.”
“We are doing this drive to make sure that no child feels forgotten. We want them to know that they are loved and though off,” she continued.
In a world where everyone is looking out for themselves and their families, it is important to step outside of self and consider those who do not have the ability celebrate the warm holidays like Easters and Christmas.

Solomons said, “One act of kindness can change a life. If all of us can do something for a child, we would be planting a seed of the willingness to give and always show gratitude to others.”
Giving back to the community sometimes involves bringing people together and working toward a single cause. Local organisations plan large-scale fundraising events which raise awareness of a local need, encourage local unity and bring in lots of money.
