Skhumba has taken it upon himself to lend a helping hand wherever he can, through his career and star profile.

The comedian and actor recently announced that he'll be hosting an annual comedy show, from this year, which aims to raise a laugh in aid of communities which are in need of help.

Taking to Instagram, Skhumba revealed that this year, his show is dedicated to collecting and buying new wheelchairs for those in need.

"Already collected three wheelchairs for my Wheel Chair Comedy Show that I'll be hosting in July," he wrote, on a picture of himself and an officer, who just donated a wheelchair to the initiative.

"All the money made that weekend will go into buying wheelchairs," he added.

He goes on to thank all those that have contributed to the cause, before revealing that the final dates for the comedy show will be confirmed this week.
