#BigFavour: Woman pays it forward to Durban baby home

Listen to this heartwarming story in the podcast then read more below:

Terri and Nola run The Baby House in Westville, a safe haven for abandoned babies which operates 'on a wing and a prayer'.

Volunteers and donations from the community keep this incredible place of safety open. 

The house is home to a maximum of six babies who have been handed over by a social worker, usually shortly after birth. Two dedicated house mothers then lovingly look after these precious little babies as their caregivers. 

One thing that the home desperately needs is a washing machine. With washing being done all day, every day, it’s a constant struggle.

It was an email from listener Chanine Munro that saved the day.

Chanine had recently won a top loader washing machine by entering an in-store competition, and being an avid listener of the Big Favour, decided that she wanted to donate it to someone deserving.

Perfect timing and what a wonderful idea to gift it to The Baby House Westville.

Thanks to Chanine, the nightmare days of washing piling up at the Baby House Westville are over.
