Give-a-Wish

We have a Winner!

From the start, the Astra Furnishers Give-a-Wish Competition was all about changing lives. We received over 2000 entries and the stories showed that the need out there is massive.

Our final winner, Olga Monkoe's story of abuse and survival is hers to tell, but it's one that's a reality for many women in our country. But her strength, faith and courage was what has brought her this far.

 

South Africa's darling celebrity couple, Hungani and Stephanie Ndlovu, partnered with Astra Furnishers to announce the finalists and the ultimate winner of the competition at Astra Furnishers Mams Mall. Their humble way and their heart for people made them a perfect match to tell Olga's story.

Thank you to our sponsors, our staff, The Ndlovu's, and everyone who entered for helping us a make a difference in the lives of Olga and her whole family.

A single mom of three children, Olga was nominated by her mother, Emilia Mokoena after Olga's daughter helped her enter. She received quality furniture and appliances to the value of R80 000, a far cry from the one bed they currently share in their 1-bedroom rental.
