SA business donates R100k to those working on rebuilding KZN

Loading player...
This week had left most of us feeling hopeless. It seemed like this unrest will continue for the foreseeable future and there was nothing we would be able to do to get through it, never mind put a stop to it.

But how quickly we forget the incredible tenacity of the South African people. Our ability to find the light in the darkest of situations. Our ability to come together when it seems like every force is working towards pushing us apart and pitting us against each other.

Neighbours came together and started helping each other. WhatsApp groups were being flooded with resources, updates on open stores and more.

KZN is already coming together to restore peace, clean up and raise money for those affected by the events of the past few days.

Even people from across the country are contributing to the restoration of our province.
