A former soccer star is auctioning his old jerseys for charity. Esrom Nyandoro sold some of his Mamelodi Sundowns gear for seventy thousand rand at a Johannesburg event. Now his Zimbabwe national team shirt from the 2004 Africa Cup of Nations is up for bids locally, starting at two thousand dollars.
The money supports his foundation, which pays school fees for dozens of students in Bulawayo. The recent gala raised over three hundred thousand rand in pledges, with big donations from companies like Diaspora Meds. Nyandoro said the effort is about giving back to the community that supported him. He got help from former teammates Surprise Moriri and Peter Ndlovu at the event.
