Lewis Ndlovu celebrates 10 years of providing Christmas joy to children

Lewis Ndlovu is organizing the 10th anniversary of Santa Comes to Makokoba, a community initiative in the suburb of Makokoba, Bulawayo, Zimbabwe.

Ndlovu founded the project through his non-profit organization, Drums of Peace, to provide festive experiences for children living in a high-density area facing economic hardships. The event is scheduled for December 22. Ndlovu plans to host a day of activities, meals, and gifts for approximately 60 children.

He is seeking financial and in-kind donations from the public and local businesses to fund the celebration and provide food hampers for the participants. Organizers are using the milestone anniversary to expand the reach of the initiative. While the project began as a small gathering for a few children, it has grown into a major community event supported by residents and well-wishers across Bulawayo.
