Patience was asleep with her three daughters when armed men broke into her home and took everything she had. KZN, she needs our help.

A hard working, humble and kind mother of three daughters - 11, 6, 1½ years old, had her life turned upside down on the 23 November around 12:30am when three masked men broke down the door and entered the room Patience rents in Parkgate, Verulam.

Patience who works as an office maintenance worker was asleep with her three young daughters when the incident took place. The men who carried a gun and knives threatened to hurt them as they ransacked the room. Terrified for their lives,
they didn’t make a sound as they didn’t want to be harmed.

She is currently using a paraffin one plate stove and borrowed pot she borrowed to cook as everything in her home was taken, including pots, food, baby's milk formula, nappies, shoes, clothing, microwave, stove....basically everything.
