A five-year-old boy from Mossel Bay, in the Southern Cape, has become a social media star after donating his Christmas savings to underprivileged children.
The Grade R learner used the R320 that he saved over the year to buy party packs for close to 50 children from an informal settlement in Klein Brak River.
Denzhe Ndou and his mother, Ndivhuwo, had to first exchange his tin full of coppers and silvers at the bank before they could start shopping for the kids.
“I went to buy some party packets for all the children who don’t have food. The reason why I did this to him is, you know, nowadays kids need to grow up with the spirit of sharing within them and not to be greedy. I believe if we teach them from our own homes about giving, then they will grow up with it.”
