Loading player...
Darren, Sky, and Carmen shared the powerful story of Ms. Thembele Shangase from Inchanga, whose home was destroyed in the 2022 floods. Years later, she’s still living in unsafe conditions — and we’ve decided: this Mandela Day, we’re rebuilding her home.

Visit ecr.co.za, click on the Donation tab, and help us build more than a house. Help us build hope.
