Story:

Hello East Coast Radio and Halfway. 

I know many people have probably written to you about their mothers but I feel like my mom deserves this because of the hardships she has been through and still came out strong afterwards.

Raising five children on her own, struggling financially and cooking outside on a wood fire due to circumstances gave me the resilience I have today as a grown woman. 

She has showed us all the love, compassion and warmth of a good home without feeling the pinch of financial struggle whilst growing up. 

Listen to part 1 of the incredible story Sane told Halfway and The Big Favour:

For her 50th birthday a few years back, my brothers and sisters wanted to surprise her with a trip to a dream destination.

Alas, due to the complications called finances played a huge role in her not being able to go so we bought a cake and celebrated at home instead. 

She is now edging closer to 60 years old but we still feel like we didn't do justice for her 50th birthday. 

Please help us make her dream destination come true! 

It would be awesome to do this for my mother.

Kind regards,

 Sane Malinga
