The AfriForum branch in Benoni donated hand sanitiser and face masks to the community on 18 April 2020 to help protect them against COVID-19. 80 bottles hand sanitiser were donated Bad Boyz Security, PHP/Mamba Security and ER24.
This follows after the civil rights organisation launched a national project over the past two weeks during which 15 000 bottles hand sanitiser were donated to various police stations, emergency services and old-age homes. AfriForum distributed a further 4 000 bottles hand sanitiser and 3 200 face masks on 15 April 2020 to its 53 branches in the northern region to support communities.
“It is important that we as a community take hands and support each other during the lockdown,” says Stephanus (Butch) Blignault, AfriForum’s District Coordinator for the East Rand.
AfriForum appeals to communities to regularly visit the organisation’s Facebook page to get the latest information about the nationwide lockdown and COVID-19.
