The Robin Hood Foundation delivered much-needed essentials to grandmothers who tirelessly shoulder the responsibility of caring for their families.

KwaZulu Natal, South Africa (10 September 2024) – In many African families and communities, grandmothers often bear the immense responsibility of caring for and providing for their children, grandchildren, and extended family members, even when faced with limited resources.

Despite their advanced age and personal needs, many of these selfless women are left to serve as the pillars of their households.

Spreading hope and goodness was The Robin Hood Foundation, which came bearing much-needed essentials and goodies for these grandmothers.

The charity’s volunteers recently spent a day in Embo village with Pastor Leonard, who identified 50 deserving gogo’s who received a Robin Hood bag filled with groceries, Hope Jars, toiletries, chips, mugs, linen and blankets.

The gift in kind was met with thanksgiving from the grateful gogo’s who often have many mouths to feed while struggling with their own ailments, with no one to rely on for assistance to get through the hardest and driest of seasons.

“These ladies are the cornerstone of their communities, most of which single-handedly provide and raise their grandchildren, while all done on their state grants or pensions.

“They are proud, gracious, loving, beautiful, kind and deserving souls. We all have a lot to learn from our elders,” Robin Hood Foundation shared.
