Imizamo Yethu fire relief - "We give back"

On the 4th of March 2017 a devastating fire raged through large parts of the informal settlement of Imizamo Yethu in Hout Bay burning homes to the ground leaving thousands homeless and destitute. Among those affected were 2 of the Nox Rentals family.

For once it didn't matter who you were, everyone felt affected and the joint actions of those in Hout Bay and the support received from groups like the Nox partners and Nox family made a quick and effective response to the fire possible.
