South African billionaire Xolane Ndhlovu has offered significant relief to the grieving Vale family, whose 29-year-old daughter, Primrose Vale, tragically died from malaria in Lagos, Nigeria, during the recent festive season.
The talented makeup artist’s passing left her South African family heartbroken and facing the substantial cost of repatriating her remains, estimated at over R97,000.
Learning of their plight, Mr. Ndhlovu generously donated R100,000, enabling the family to bring Primrose home for a dignified burial.
A family spokesperson expressed their eternal gratitude for his selfless act, which has eased their immense burden.
The community rallied around the Vale family, highlighting the unexpected financial challenges of such tragedies abroad.
Primrose Vale’s story sadly underscores the fragility of life and the impact of malaria.
Mr. Ndhlovu’s timely intervention underscores the power of individual action to alleviate suffering and bring hope in times of despair. His contribution has not only provided practical assistance but has also offered a beacon of light to a family grappling with unimaginable loss.
The South African billionaire, known for his humility and extensive philanthropic work in 2024 gifted a house to Thandile Ramza, an unemployed single mother he met through Facebook.
Ndhlovu, whose name is synonymous with numerous charitable deeds, represents a class of wealthy individuals who shy away from ostentatious displays of wealth, focusing instead on giving back to society.
Ramza, a young mother from East London, South Africa, initially reached out to the tech billionaire on Facebook, asking for food assistance. Ndhlovu responded not only by providing food but also helping her secure a job, a car, and eventually a brand-new house.
The house, built at a cost of R770,000, replaced the dilapidated structure Ramza had inherited, which was in severe disrepair. Ndhlovu shared his motivation on Instagram, explaining that the condition of the house deeply moved him, prompting him to take swift action
