Travis Warwick-Oliver has nominated Joy for the Big Favour. 

Joy Mzolo was given just a few days to live after being diagnosed with Brittle Bone disease. However, Joy has been able to enjoy life thanks to the Boake Family Foster Home.

Take a listen to Travis talk about the difficulty he has seen from his encounter with Joy:

From the get-go, Joy's condition was severe and something as small as sneezing would break Joy’s ribs. 

Travis had explained that Joy has technically fractured almost every bone in her body and lived an exceptionally painful first eight years of her life.

After hearing this extraordinary story, many people were moved and wanted to help out Joy. In came David Rachidi, who is the Marketing Manager at Betway

David and the Betway team reached out and heard the plea from both Travis and Joy to which they want to help in a big way. 

So Betway would love to donate R20,000 in cash to Joy, which will be able to assist with paying off all outstanding medical bills and help in all kinds of ways in the future. 

Here's the moment that brought such wonderful excitement to both Travis and Joy, all thanks to Betway:
