What if you could buy dresses worn to some of the country's biggest gala and TV events for only R10?

It may sound like something out of a shopaholic's dream but that is exactly what students in Cape Town did recently when they were given the chance to buy a little bit of Elana Afrika's wardrobe.

The TV personality recently cleared her cupboards and donated the stash to Parow High School for them to sell to raise money for cancer.

 

Reflecting on the experience in an Instagram post recently, Elana called it "special".

"Yesterday (Wednesday) was so special. I have all these amazing clothes I've bought over the years for TV shows, gala events etc. I gave it all away. The Parow High learners shopped all my items, by donating R10 to Cancer Association of South Africa. I love their young bright minds! I love my school and I love giving back," Elana said.
