It takes a good person to bring change and express love in helping those who are less fortunate living around them. Celebrities that go an extra mile in helping the needy prove to us that , money and fame is never enough to change how you are.
A good heart receives and gives. Some famous people may do charitable work for fame but whatever the case so long as helpless people get the help they need.
Here are some of Eswatini public figures who run their own charities:
Illa PenBoy –Donate Bread Campaign.
It all started with donating bread to the less privileged and now his campaign has gained momentum by building houses, donating bread during the Covid-19 pandemic. Founder, Illa, saw the need to donate basic needs in understanding on how the pandemic has affected most families especially those depending on hustling such basic needs.
