Owning a perfect smile and new home
The Collen Mashawana Foundation delivered on its promise to build a new home for Meida Ramuhala who now beams with her new smile
A new smile and home are part of a new chapter for cancer survivor Meida Ramuhala after years of suffering.
MEIDA CAN NOW SMILE AFTER REGAINING HOPE
Meida Ramuhala suffered from Mandibular Ameloblastoma, a condition that caused the development of a tumor around her jaw.
This condition made it hard for the Limpopo resident to find any form of employment.
Recently the Limpopo Provincial Government in conjunction with the Collen Mashawana Foundation made a commitment to transform Meida’s life for the better.
“Following a call from Limpopo Health MEC Dr Phophi Ramathuba requesting the Collen Mashawana Foundation to assist in building a home for Meida Ramahulana, I visited the lovely family on the 11th of September 2022 at Ha-Mudimeli in Limpopo Province to assess their living conditions.”

HOME BUILT IN LESS THAN THE PRESCRIBED EIGHT WEEKS
He said it was on this [day] that he committed to building a new home for this family and requested 8 weeks to improve their living conditions.
“Through our partnership with Afribiz and Kotlolo Engineering, [today] we delivered on our commitment. After only 4 weeks, we handover a fully furnished 2 bedroom house, with a kitchen, a lounge and a bathroom,” said Mashawana.
“Meida recently underwent a successful surgery for a rare cancer of the chin, a condition which made it difficult for her to find employment,” he lamented.
BOREHOLE DONATED DUE TO LIMITED WATER IN MEIDA’S COMMUNITY
In addition to the house, through Mashawana’s partnership with Muvex Drilling, he also donated a Borehole to Meida after learning that there was limited access to water in her community.
“Meida will from today be one of the suppliers of water to her community, a project that will assist her and her daughter sustain their lives,” he said.
He went on to say, “Through our ongoing programmes to assist those who are left vulnerable within our communities, the CMF places emphasis on restoration of dignity to those in need so that they may be included in society and pursue a normal life. May God bless Meida, the first-time Property Owner and Businesswoman”.
