About SD Lend A Hand

Lend A Hand is a charity group that has developed from the Swaziland Network of Facebook. Upon the realizing the huge of potential of reaching out to the less fortunate and needy people in this country, Swaziland Facebook Friends decided to form a charity group in May 2009, that has been able to reach out to a number of disadvantaged people.  

Despite starting as an informal group, Lend A Hand has successfully mobilized support from willing individuals on Facebook to donate their time, money, clothing and food for the benefit of needy people throughout Swaziland.

During yesterday's holiday, the young people found it befitting to spend their time at the Zakhele Skom Care Point where over 80 children were served a balanced meal. The crew brought us the following pictures:
