Nelson Mandela once said, “What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead.” This Mandela Day, Rainbow Children’s Village invites you to make your 67 minutes count by helping us care for the children who call our village home.
Why Your Support Matters
At Rainbow Children’s Village, we provide a loving, safe, and nurturing environment for vulnerable children. But keeping our home warm, welcoming, and functional requires ongoing maintenance and care—everything from repairing taps and fixing leaking roofs to painting jungle gyms and revamping kitchens. These essential repairs ensure that the children can live, play, and grow in a place they truly deserve.
Our Mandela Day Maintenance Needs
Your generous donation can help us tackle these urgent maintenance projects, including:
- Repairing and replacing taps and showers
- Fixing water leaks in bathrooms
- Renovating kitchens with new cupboards, countertops, and tiles
- Painting and upgrading kids’ rooms with new blinds, shelving, and mattress protectors
- Repairing roofs and waterproofing office walls
- Fixing our deep freezer and fridge to store food safely
- Refurbishing the jungle gym for safe, joyful play
And much more. Every contribution, big or small, will go directly to these critical repairs.
How You Can Help
You can donate an amount that suits you—R67, R670, R6,700, or even R67,000—and know that your gift will directly impact the wellbeing of our children. Every donation qualifies for a Section 18A tax deduction, and corporates can also earn BBBEE points under the SED element of their scorecard.
