Join celebrity actress Lisa Bobbert for brunch – and help
those in need.
Lisa Bobbert, one of Durban’s most loved and versatile stage
personalities, will host a special networking function for women entitled Bobbert’s Brunch, at Durban Country Club
on April 19.
The event will be given in support of the popular actress’s
Joy Project initiative, a non-profit organisation formed to raise funds for
poverty-stricken orphans, widows and other causes in dire need of support.
In tandem with her busy stage career, Lisa Bobbert has
become increasingly active doing corporate and charity work. She is frequently
invited to present motivational talks to various organisations, women’s groups,
church groups and charities, a relatively new string to her bow. The
multi-award-winning celebrity actress says she loves this platform which offers
her the opportunity to reach out to people in need, and to make a difference in
their lives. To this end, Bobbert has developed a presentation entitled “I am
not OK and you are not OK and that’s OK.”
“I talk about coping with life and how to navigate some of
life’s challenges,” Bobbert explains. “I also remind people that the Hollywood
role model of us all perfectly multi-tasking is not realistic. How can we begin
to achieve that? Personally I would love to kill Superwoman. She has a lot to
answer for!”
To date, funds raised through Lisa Bobbert’s Joy Project
have helped put two young people from a children’s home in Jozini, in northern
Zululand, through university, as well as helping other poverty stricken orphans
and widows financially.
The programme will include her ‘Killing the Superwoman’ address, and she will offer women the
chance to make contact with like-minded opinion-makers who would like to join
her in helping those in need.
Bobbert’s Brunch
takes place on April 19 from 08h00 to 11h00. Join Lisa for a fun and
informative morning filled with laughter and connecting. There will be loads of
prizes, lucky draws and give-aways, and every lady will take home a surprise
goody bag. Tickets R275 - bookings by email at clare@pinkinkproductions.co.za
