All hands were on deck
as 80 children were treated to a special Christmas party at the Seawinds
Community Center yesterday.
The kids were eager
with anticipation waited outside as the organisers readied the venue, taking
special care to drape the chairs and tables and prepare for the
buffet-style-three-course-meal.
Some of the children
were joined by their parents, single parents and senior women were in
attendance as well. For the past five years, the Michelle Davids Foundation has
been organising street parties for the children of Military Heights, Hillview,
Seawinds and Lavender Hill on the Cape Flats.
This year, however Davids
opted to sway from usual and have the event indoors due to the ongoing violence
in the area.
Every year since 2020,
gifts are prepared for the children and this year was no different. The
children struggled to carry both their plates and gifts home.
