DO IT DAY AT ST. JOSEPH’S

Xoliswa (far left), Hessel, Mandy and Sabine (all volunteering for Old Mutual’s DO IT DAY “Give a Hand – Change a Life”) came together to help clean the medical ward windows. Mario, the Operations Manager noted that “we have a lot of work keeping five medical wards in top shape, and cleaning the windows is always on our “To Do” list, but the project gets pushed back due to more pressing needs.”
We send out a big thank you to Old Mutual for supporting ‘DO IT DAY’, to Greater Good for connecting the dots and to the four volunteers for helping to keep our view of the world sparkling! Thank you!!!
