[LISTEN] How to Make a Hundred Rand Last Years & Kindle Fond Memories

Ahmed Waja– 25/02/2021

Can you stretch a hundred bucks so that it benefits an entire family, not only for a day but for a few years?

Impossible? Not really, considering it’s what you do with the blue note that can really add real value to any family including your own.

As part of Radio Islam’s challenge to presenters to see who can do the most with just one clip, senior Journalist Faizel Patel used his hundred bucks in ways that makes us think how important it is to consider what you buy and how you can make a difference to a less fortunate family.

A long term plan for the hundred bucks spend will also kindle memories for the family when they look upon the items that were bought for them.

Listen to the podcast to find out what Faizel Patel did with his hundred bucks.
