The Enos Mafokate Equestrian Club is a riding stable in the sprawling township of Soweto in South Africa, founded in 2007 by Enos Mafokate, the country’s first black showjumper and Olympic athlete in Barcelona. 



The equestrian facility is currently undergoing an upgrade,
for which Milmac Produce Supply, an animal feed company, has partnered with
it.&nbsp; 



“We do fund-raising together; it’s not only about donating money. We do shows here and help promote the club and get our clients involved,” says Kirsten Bowyer, the marketing coordinator of Milmac, referring to the donations and volunteer work the facility is encouraging from the public. 



July is celebrated every year as ‘Mandela Month’ in South Africa, dedicated to the late former South African president, Nelson Mandela, who was born on July 18. At the Enos Mafokate Equestrian Club in July, to honor Mandela, volunteers gave 67 minutes of their time to help with the cleaning and overhauling of the stable and yards.

facility, a young man is washing a horse at dusk, before the sun rays make way
for a starry night. 



Among other things, he works hard during the day cleaning
the barns and ensuring the horses are safely ensconced in their stables.
