Durban woman helps homeless with clothes for job interviews
It is often said that charity begins at home, but one woman is taking being charitable to new heights.
Listen to this inspiring woman, or read the details under the podcast.
Twenty-six-year-old Westville resident, Namhla Nxumalo has gone viral for her initiative which helps people who are looking for jobs.
Namhla has donated her own clothes and gives them to people who don’t have clothes to wear and are going for a job interview.
She will even deliver them to you if you live around Durban.
If you have a job interview in and around Durban & perhaps you don't have the clothes to wear. Hit me up via DM & I'll hook you up. I'll deliver the clothes to you. Sizes between 28-34. Please retweet. I want you to walk in there looking 100%fpr your dream job. 😊

With youth unemployment in South Africa at over 50%, Namhla says this was just her own little way of giving back and helping people secure their future.
She provides clothes ranging in sizes from 28 to 34 and currently is only able to provide for women, but she says she is hoping to start being able to help men as well through the initiative.
Namhla’s deed has also inspired other women in Johannesburg to start a similar project to help style interviewees.
