KHABAZELA
"I am Dumile Magaqa. My goal in life has always been to open up a poultry farm, however this is not possible right now due to my financial circumstances. I have chosen rather to work for my community. I am currently a member of the ward committee and I also co-ordinate Khabazela Soup Kitchen and homework center. I am happy and proud that I am able to help and uplift my community."
​
Dumi and his team of volunteers feed over 80 kids 5 times a week.
Their passion and dedication over the last 3 years since the launch of the soup kitchen has been inspiring and humbling at the same time. Cooking wholesome meals off a 2 plate gas stove is a challenge that they are always ready for. Feeding over 400 hungry tummies a week, this team have added considerable value to this community.

"I love cooking for children because I grew up in a poor family, life wasn't easy when it comes to food. When I got this opportunity to cook for vulnerable children, I felt very happy because I know that the children will always be smiling while their tummies are full. I thank Singakwazi Aid for making my dream of taking care of my community children possible." Pretty Ntombifuthi Mwimule
