La Culla Safe Haven for Babies in Wynberg, a refuge for abandoned infants, has received a generous donation of baby toiletries that will last a year. This contribution includes OnlyBio shampoo, bubble bath, and body wash, made possible through a partnership between The Great Africa Hair Company and the Clicks Helping Hand Trust.
Since its opening in 2020, La Culla, run by the Maritz family, has provided care for over 120 babies from local communities. Currently, the facility is home to ten infants, aged between three weeks and nine months, offering them safety, love, and protection.
Grant Heynes, Head of Strategic Development at Great Africa, expressed his enthusiasm about the partnership. “We’re pleased to support the excellent work that La Culla does in providing shelter for babies in need,” he said. “If you nurture a child from birth into young adulthood in the right environment, they have the best chance of success in life, and then they too can contribute back to society.”
Janine Maritz, founder of La Culla, expressed her heartfelt gratitude for the donation. She emphasized how important such contributions are for fulfilling the haven’s mission. “We are very thankful for this donation of baby essentials, which will help us meet our chief objective of providing for abandoned babies and giving them the helping hand they need in life,” she stated.
The Clicks Helping Hand Trust, which aims to uplift local communities, was proud to support La Culla. Vikash Singh, Clicks Managing Executive, remarked, “We are pleased to collaborate on such a heartwarming initiative. By working together with the Great Africa Hair Company, we can make a meaningful difference and help build a healthier future for all.”
La Culla relies heavily on donations to meet daily needs such as diapers, food, clothing, blankets, medication, and toiletries.
