Johannesburg – You often support your favourite musician by buying their music, but it’s a real heart warming moment when they decided to return the favour and give back to their fans, even if it’s just a little bit.

Malinga is all about the kicks! And so he wanted to make sure that footballers in his hometown of Temba, Hammanskraal could kick along. He donated soccer boots to every young boy on the local soccer team.
