Make A Day, Change A Life - Meet Senzo

Meet SweepStar Senzo Msimango! In 2019 he opened up a bakery in KwaMashu, Durban to help better the lives of the youth in his community and also provide affordable treats to the people in the townships. “Through my bakery, I mentor the children in my community and coach them at a young age to keep them away from drugs and alcohol abuse,” he says. Senzo also helps them to make an honest living, by giving them baked goods to sell and earn a commission. “I will also be teaching them how to bake, so they will be gaining a skill that they will have forever,” he says. But, to continue and build on his dream, Senzo needs your help! 

Senzo wants to help even more children in his community by expanding his business and giving more of them an opportunity. “I want to build a shelter for the homeless and feed the families that can't afford to feed themselves,” he says. Even though he doesn’t have any children of his own, Senzo feels strongly responsible for the youth in his community and wants to help them reach their full potential. "There is a non-profit organization which provides 3-course meals for the less fortunate. I donate four brown and six white loaves of bread twice a week to them," Senzo says. He also runs a youth mentorship program that gives the children of his community an opportunity to earn an income. 

Help us help Senzo! For Senzo to continue his bakery and provide delicious cakes, bread and tasty treats to the people in his community at a low cost and help the youth, he needs new equipment. "I'm currently limited with the oven I have and that means I can't get more product out to the people of my community," he says. We want to raise R15 000 and help Senzo make a meaningful impact and change in his community while empowering the next generation.  

The funds will go towards:

1. A Double Oven
