Thank You to Westville<br />

Boys High School<br />

On Friday 24th February Westville Boys High<br />

School hosted their annual golf day at Kloof<br />

Country Club. We were given a hole to set up<br />

with our branded table and gazebo. Thank you<br />

for allowing us this opportunity to generate<br />

awareness and bring in much-needed funds.<br />

We raised R3 540 in donations.<br />

Mohamed Adam and Siyabonga<br />

Thusi get to be mobile<br />

On Thursday 6th April we were delighted that Mohamed<br />

Adam and Siyabonga Thusi received their motorised wheelchairs.<br />

Mohamed is 9 years old and affected with Duchenne<br />

muscular dystrophy. He attends A.M. Moolla Spes Nova<br />

School. He had never used a motorised wheelchair before<br />

and was full of excitement.<br />

Siyabonga Thusi also had not used a motorised wheelchair<br />

before and could not stop smiling. Siyabonga is 20 years old<br />

and has Duchenne muscular dystrophy. He lives in Tongaat<br />

with his mom, Nokuthula.<br />

Thank You<br />

Westville Senior Primary School<br />

On Thursday 6th April we were delighted that Mohamed<br />

Adam Westville Senior Primary School supported <strong>MDF</strong> KZN<br />

for the seventh year in a row and handed over a cheque of<br />

R3 000 on Friday, 30th June to support the Muscular<br />

Dystrophy Foundation KZN. Thank you so much to the<br />

Principal, Mr Richard Brown, the staff and pupils for<br />

your constant support; it is much appreciated.<br />

From Westville Senior Primary’s Facebook page:<br />

Our school motto, “Ut Prosim” (We Shall Serve) is an<br />

integral part of our school ethos and our children have a keen awareness of the need to play a positive role in<br />

supporting those in need. Today saw another chapter in this ongoing WSPS charity programme as the<br />

Muscular Dystrophy Foundation were handed a cheque of R3 000 to assist their excellent work in helping those<br />

with this debilitating condition. We take this opportunity to salute all the staff at <strong>MDF</strong> for their invaluable work.<br />
