Doornfontein inferno













Always needed, Always there


One day around 14:00pm, a fire broke out at a residential area in Doornfontein, the place was gutted down as seen in the pictures. About thirty eight rooms were converted into residential units for rental purposes. Almost one hundred and fifty people where left homeless or lost most of their belongings.

As usual The South African red cross Society was there to give much needed help. We gave them food parcels, blankets, clothing and kitchen utensils.

This unfortunate incident happened at Rocky and Davis streets in Doornfontein, we were informed of this disaster by Mr Nyaose who happens to be one of the local indunas. Once again we thank all heartfelt donors, supporters and volunteers.
