Shimmy Beach Club is proud to be hosting the inaugural ‘TUTUFEST’ concert on the Sunday, 26 February 2017.
Performances on the day will include GOODLUCK, Alice Phoebe-Lou, The Kiffness, Brett Aitken and James Copeland, amoung other surprise acts.
A group of kind individuals have worked to put together a fundraising concert in partnership with Shimmy Beach Club. A number of artists have kindly volunteered their time to perform, as have a numerous companies who work behind the scenes at events like these.
Four-year-old Ayola Mofu was orphaned by his father. His mother, Caroline, was a popular member of staff at Backyard Cafe in Constantia. She had worked hard in her own time to formally qualify as a chef, all the while raising a young boy whom she loved unconditionally. She was murdered the month she would have graduated from Capsicum, and the same month in which Ayola was due to start pre-school.
In the aftermath of this senseless act, a number of people came together to do what they could to support Ayola and to safeguard his future. Nikki Harding, who had first employed Caroline, began to raise funds to help this young boy through life, a cause to which people have rapidly rallied. Ayola’s name has also served as inspiration for this initiative: to support “All Young Orphans Left Alone”.
The funds raised will be devoted to securing the future of Ayola, and those children like him. Donations in excess will be made to like-minded charities, especially those focused on supporting and educating your South Africans including: Mandela Legacy Foundation, Desmond Tutu Foundation and Just the One Foundation.
