Love to Live 2011 held from the 18th to 20th March at the Mountain Rise Primary School was without doubt the biggest and best campaign to date and a most appropriate way to celebrate 11 years of service to the community.
​
The Love to Live/NPA/SAPS (Mountain Rise) Crime Prevention, Road Safety and Child Protection Day was once again a huge success with some 4000 learners from neighbouring schools attending. The overall spirit of the event was once again overwhelming. Thirty seven local schools enthusiastically embraced the event by participating in various talent contests, in which a strong messages on the themes “Hard Work Leads To Success ” were sent out to the community. The number of entries in all categories has been increasing annually and this year did not disappoint. Some 6000 entrants participated in the Love to Live Peace and Hope fun run Sunday, 2nd May, making this race one of the biggest fun runs in the city. Proceeds from the fun run have once again reached an unbelievable R390, 000. Schools were presented with up to 90% of funds raised at a special presentation on Mnday, 6th June at the Eddels Sports Club. Thanks to the support of the Department of Arts, Culture and Sport, the campaign was taken to other areas of the province (Ugu and Sisonke) in August 2011 and in so doing assisted in positively influencing the lives of many more learners.
​
The Woman’s division continues to impress with assistance rendered to several schools including Umsilinga Primary School. Love to Live ventured into Edendale with the inaugural Love to Live Young Money Heritage Day festival on Saturday, 11th September 2010 at the Ashdown Community Hall. This event is envisaged to become an annual event with the increasing number of cultural and educational aspects added to the program.
