Kuils River based Amabamba Fencing officially handed over a new security fence to Vrolike Vinkies Educare in Sarepta last week. The donation carries special significance as general manager Stanford Demas is a former “Vrolike Vinkie” himself.
“This generous donation of fencing, amounting to thousands of rand, is not just a gift of protection. It is a powerful symbol of love, responsibility, and belief in our children’s future,” said Anthony Bosch, a member of the educare’s governing body.
Vision
For Demas, the decision was deeply personal. “As an ex-student of this facility, I think this facility was part and parcel of the unique foundation that I have,” he shared. “Kuils River is in me. I breathe Kuils River.”
Demas thanked his colleagues at Amabamba Fencing for supporting his vision, particularly managing director Sharon Isaacs, a 63-year Kuils River resident, and financial director Cicelene Fransman.

“This fence is more than steel and structure. It is a promise that our children can play safely and learn confidently,” Bosch said. “When community and generosity meet, transformation happens.”
