What happens when entertainment meets purpose?

You get moments like this: Deal or No Deal Celebrity SA, proudly sponsored by LottoStar, raised a phenomenal R464,677 for Jumping Kids - a non-profit organisation dedicated to providing prosthetic equipment, mobility aids and ongoing care for children in need.

This generous contribution means that children waiting for prosthetics and medical support won’t have to wait as long. They’ll be able to get the life-changing equipment and care they need sooner. For many, this is more than mobility. It’s the chance to live, play and dream without limits.

All this was made possible by SA’s selfless celebrities who put their hearts and heads into the game.

Every deal made by the banker, every briefcase chosen by the celebrities didn’t just raise funds, it raised hope for the young amputees in need of a normal childhood.

These are the stars who made it happen and the money they raised:

• Thuthukha Mthembu – R61,300
• Tol A$$ Mo – R21,000
• DJ Lloyd – R53,220
• Katlego Mlambo – R60,000

• Anele Zondo – R24,000
• Sha Sha – R12,000
• Linah Majola – R30,001

Through their combined efforts, they raised R464,677, embodying the spirit of Ubuntu – showing that when we work together, even the smallest acts of unity can create something truly extraordinary for a greater cause. With the help of these celebrities and the unwavering support of the viewers, Jumping Kids can continue giving children the chance to walk, run and chase after their dreams.
