DAY 5: Fratelli & Mondo brings more joy for animal lover Shakila

Story
There was mention in the morning on the breakfast show, Darren, Keri and Sky about Gateway celebrating 21 years of being open.
I have someone I'd like to nominate for this giveaway.
Every day on the way to dropping my girls off at school, we drive through a settlement area where there are numerous dogs who sit (come rain or shine) waiting for their only meal a day.
It breaks my heart to see them sitting there but they know, each day they will receive a meal from a very special lady named Shakila.
Shakila who takes it upon herself to provide them with a meal as she drives past on her way to work.
She (Shakila) is a very humble lady since I've gotten to know her.
She stops each morning, feeding at least 20 dogs - all out of her own pocket.
I have donated a few bags of food to help over time, but I myself have pets and know that it all costs and adds up.
Yet, every day she is there, and they have come to rely on her for their daily meal.
I'd love for someone to please provide a donation of dog pellets, to help lift the financial burden on her.
I would also love for her to be spoilt, by your giveaway Gateway. For her , it's just a little something to give back.
She is honestly an angel and so giving of herself to these dogs.
As everyone walks and drives past, without ever giving them the attention they deserve, she is the ONLY one who stops for them.
She really deserves something special.
Kind regards
Kirsty Springett
