THIS season, often the loneliest for many, gently reminds us that even in our laughter and celebration, there are hearts standing quietly alone.

At the Mohanji Centre of Benevolence (MCB Nonoti), we choose to see them.

Through the grace and collaboration of Mohanji Foundation South Africa (MFSA), ACT Foundation, SVR Foundation, Daughters of Africa, together with our devoted donors, we were blessed to distribute over 800 gift packs across Nonoti and our outreach communities this Christmas.

Each gift was more than a treat it was a message that, "We see you, we love you and we remember you".

For many children, a “Lucky Dip” remains an unimaginable luxury a distant dream. This Christmas, that dream became a living reality for the children of Nonoti, filling the day with wonder, laughter, and pure joy.We extend our deepest gratitude to our quiet yet steadfast main sponsor, whose generosity flows without fanfare and whose compassion consistently reaches where it is needed most.

A heartfelt thank you to our patron Shantan Reddy, together with Shalimar Reddy of the SVR Foundation our real-life Santa of Nonoti, whose kindness continues to light the way for our community.

When giving is done in silence, Grace speaks the loudest. Merry Christmas.
