Super 14 Final - Orlando Stadium
http://www.joburg.org.za/fifaworldcup/content/view/3307/280/
Orlando Stadium
Mooki Str
Soweto

RSVP

This weekend Orlando Stadium will be home to the Bulls and the Stormers in the Super 14 final. This presents a fantastic opportunity to build bridges between historical adversaries based on racial divides. We've always known that sport is such a powerful connector of people, winning hearts and minds through simple passion for 'the game'.

The idea is quite simply; get every fan attending the game to donate a blanket or item of warm clothing. The stadium capacity is 40,000. All tickets were sold out within an hour of going on sale. If just 1 in 10 contributed, we would collect 4,000 items that could be provided to the surrounding community. The collection point will be setup close to the Beer Tent entrance outside Orlando Stadium.

We would donate all proceeds to the D Hani Creche in Doornkop, Soweto, or more specifically - leave them in the trusted and capable hands of Nthabiseng Dimpho who started the creche and is a wellknown and respected community leader. The daycare centre is in the area where she lived. It’s in a low-cost housing and shack dwellers area called Doornkop which is on the West side of Soweto. The centre cares for 130 children between the ages of 6 months and 6 years. She also runs a feeding scheme from the creche for 15 granny headed households where the parents have died and the grannies can’t get government grants because they can’t get ID documents (one of the households she feeds has a granny with 8 kids). She also fosters 8 children at her house and she can’t get grants for them either.

June is also Month of the Child and Nthabiseng's aim is to provide a blanket to every child in the broader Doornkop informal settlement. No mean feat. But, we can certainly help her achieve her goal. Those who can't make it to the stadium are welcome to donate at the nationwide collection points that will be in operation on Saturday. See the venues for a point near you.
