The Vusa Rugby and Learning Academy, in partnership with Shoprite, is hosting a community cleanup event in Langa on Saturday, 6 April 2019.

Vusa aims to bring about social upliftment for 120 under-privileged children through sports and academics, and Shoprite has been supporting this NGO for a number of years.

“We want to show the youngsters how good it feels to give back and how they too can make a difference in their communities, and we’re inviting the entire Langa community to join us.”

- Makabongwe Kahla, Head Coach at Vusa

 

“I love my community and want to keep it clean. That’s why I'm asking all my friends and family to join this cleanup. It's easier when we work together.”

- Luxolo Ntsholo (13), a Vusa member

 

Recycling is always a key component of any cleanup which Shoprite* supports. To this end Vusa is partnering with Packa-Ching to ensure that as little waste as possible makes it to landfill.
