Jacaranda FM is known for its commitment to serving the community and changing lives through acts of kindness. 

The award-winning radio station which has been transforming lives through its Good Morning Angels(GMA) initiative, partnered with The Do More Foundation to raise funds to help under-resourced preschools in Gauteng, Limpopo, Mpumalanga and North West.

This year, the station visited Alina's Early Childhood Development Centre in Boksburg for Mandela Day. 

"We are here to spend a bit of time with the children," said Jacaranda's Managing Director, Vuyani Dombo. 

The leading commercial radio station donated climate change play packs to the children.

It also donated scarves and beanies to help keep the young champs warm for the winter season. 

Dombo said the station hopes to "make a lasting impact" in the lives of the children. 

The children were also spoiled with food packs, doughnuts, and hot chocolate.

The Jacaranda FM's Mandela Day drive comes a few days after Good Morning Angels (GMA) celebrated two decades of amazing work in the community. 

From educational bursaries, life-saving medical intervention, and animal welfare, GMA has been doing incredible work. 

To date, it has raised more than R120 million, which has helped it make a lasting impact in the lives of thousands of South Africans.
