Singing with Cake for Mandela Day

 

So it's Mandela Day on the 18th of July....that is this coming Monday....and in an effort to do our bit, me and Haylea Hounsom (who you may know from the most recent season of Idols) are planning to do our bit by hosting a little event for the kids at the Durban Children's Home.  We are going to be there with cupcakes, goodie bags and music from 3:00 until 4:00 next Saturday (coz that is when they could fit us in).

For the moment, our plan is very simple...
Go to the home, hand out some cupcakes and goodie bags to the kids, let Hales sing and spend some time hanging out with the kids.  If you have ideas on how we could make this day even more special for the kids (there are about 100 of them, all different ages), please give me a shout so that we can arrange it.

We are looking forward to showing the kids some love, and we really hope that you will join us! :)

All the details you need are in the invite above the article.

67 cupcakes for Mandela Day

For Mandela day last weekend, I made 67 cupcakes which we (my sister, Gin and Gav) then attempted to take to the Red Cross Children's Hospital.  Unfortunately for us, they had already been inundated with people odropping off thingss, so instead we took the cakes to the Claremont Night Shelter...something sweet for all those people who went there expecting the usual cup of soup...made their day I'm sure!

It was so awesome to see so many people out and about doing their 67 minutes of good deeds - I hope it is something that catches on and keeps growing!  You can check out what other people got up to for Madiba Day here, coz charity can happen any day.
