In continuing the commemoration of Nelson Mandela International Day, Minister of Social Development, Ms Bathabile Dlamini, will on 21 July 2014, hand over school uniform and laptops to homeless children housed at the Twilight Child and Youth Care Centre in Hillbrow, Johannesburg.
Earlier this year, Minister Dlamini visited the Twilight centre to hand over blankets, as winter set in, and noticed that some of the children did not have sufficient material to assist in their schooling. The July 21 visit fulfils the promise she made to return with material to meet these needs.
Minister Dlamini will be accompanied by Gauteng MEC for Agriculture, Rural and Social Development, Ms Faith Mazibuko.
Members of the media are invited to attend and cover the handing over event, scheduled as follows:
