 Masicorp Charity Evening at Cafe Roux

Join Masicorp and Stichting Ibhongo for an unforgettable evening of comedy and live music in support of education in Masiphumelele. This special charity event forms part of Masicorp’s Mandela Month campaign and will raise vital funds to support educational programmes that create brighter futures for children in the community attending Masicorp’s Stay & Play programme. Guests will enjoy performances by three outstanding South African artists: Marc Lottering, Jeremy Olivier and Jenny & the Jameses. The evening will also feature a fundraising raffle with exciting items up for grabs.

Mandela Month Food Drive

In the spirit of Mandela Day, guests are encouraged to bring a non-perishable food item with on the night (rice, oats, maizemeal, tinned pilchards, peanut butter). These donations will help provide daily meals to 400+ children attending Masicorp’s three early childhood development centres in Masiphumelele. Guests are also invited to write a message of hope and support, which will be displayed during the event.
