We were so blessed to meet Salome’ from MARANG HOUSE this morning. As part of our FILOTIMO CARES FOR KIDS programme we delivered toys sponsored by MATTEL for the children.
Marang House was founded by Dr Pieter Ernst in 1998 to provide medical care in a non-institutional environment to seriously ill South African children. Based in Northcliff, Johannesburg, Marang House provides a stable home-environment to disadvantaged children suffering from diseases ranging from diabetes to chronic kidney failure. The children are between the ages of 4 and 14 years and are referred by public hospitals in the Johannesburg and Soweto area.
The word "Marang" was chosen as name as it means a ray of the sun that gives hope in Setswana.
Thank you to our Brand Ambassadors Nicole Fuller and Martin Scheepers for assisting us in the toy drop.
A huge thank you to BMW BRYANSTON, our official car sponsor for always getting us to our destination.
