DJ Fresh is partnering with Gumtree, South Africa’s largest online classifieds for the Gumtree Extreme ReFresh, a restoration project of a charitable nature.
The Gumtree Extreme ReFresh will see the famed local DJ spearhead the renovation and refurbishment of Little Pina Pina – a day-care centre located in Soweto – using donations made on Gumtree by Johannesburg residents.
On Tuesday 19 August, DJ Fresh and the Gumtree Extreme ReFresh team visited the centre to scope out the work to be done and meet with Lorraine Mnyandu, Little Pina Pina’s Principal.
During the ReFresh, the Big Dawg will call on the people of Jozi to clear out their garages and donate items on Little Pina Pina’s Wish List by visiting www.gumtree.co.za/refresh and following the simple steps to post an ad to donate an item.
To make the process even easier, if the donated item is needed for the ReFresh, Gumtree will arrange for it to be collected directly from the donater and delivered to Little Pina Pina.
The ReFresh team will travel around Jozi to perform the collections, ticking off items on the Wish List (think toys, furniture, electronics and appliances) as they go.
In addition to calling for items to be donated, DJ Fresh and the Gumtree Extreme ReFresh team are also asking Joburg service providers and small businesses to volunteer their time and skills to help renovate the run-down facility.
Little Pina Pina is in need of a new lick of paint, brand new vinyl flooring, artificial grass, re-plumbing, electrical wiring and numerous other things to create a safe and secure environment for young children to learn and play.
To get involved in the Gumtree Extreme ReFresh, Joburg residents should visit www.gumtree.co.za/refresh to make a donation for an item or service.
Simply click “Donate Now”, select Location (Johannesburg), select Category (Charity Donations) and add #ReFresh to the title of the ad!
The Gumtree Extreme ReFresh team will get in touch with donaters to let them know if their items or services are needed for the ReFresh of Little Pina Pina, which, after its ReFresh, will be unveiled by DJ Fresh on Wednesday 10 September.
Check out the Gumtree Extreme ReFresh video on Gumtree’s YouTube channel for an inside look at Little Pina Pina and DJ Fresh’s visit to the day-care centre.
