The #ImStaying group is doing their bit by supporting farmers in the Northern Cape as they struggle through the extreme drought.The group has been making waves all around the country and abroad with their positivity and dedication to country. With the help of #ImStaying, local resident Mark Godwin managed to raise over R200 000 in donations for farmers, their families and workers who have been living in dire circumstances for more than 9 years. Donations also came in the form of other necessities which the farmers require to make ends meet.

Godwin says the group and its members are exactly what the country needs in times of crisis.
