Elderly woman receives new home
KIMBERLEY – In December 2019 a 65-year-old woman from Seoding village outside of Kuruman, Sinah Lenoge, was left destitute after her house was demolished by strong winds and rain.
According to brig. Mohale Ramatseba, police spokesperson, this unfortunate incident attracted the attention of the Seoding Brave Watches as they teamed up and came to the rescue of the elderly woman.
The Brave Watches approached various businesses for donations to better and improve the living conditions of the Lenoge family.
Starting from 30 April 2020, the Brave Watches were working tirelessly building the house for the Lenoge family.
On Friday 8 May 2020 a newly built house was handed over to the Lenoge family. The appreciation and gratitude was clearly displayed by the family.
During the handing over of this house, the John Taolo Gaetsewe cluster commander, major general Johan Bean, Mothibistad SAPS station commander, colonel Didimalang Moetsi and representatives of businesses and structures who had contributed various donations, were in attendance.
Major general Bean called upon all structures, NGOs, CBOs and the community to support one another in a time of need like was done to the Lenoge family in Seoding. “In unity lies the strength,” said major general Bean.
