YouTuber Lasizwe and his friends are overflowing with gratitude for people who helped  raise R1m that will go towards helping students pay their tertiary registration fees for the 2021 academic year.

Lasizwe took to Twitter to share on Tuesday night that after mobilising for five days, the #R10GoesALongWay campaign reached its goal of raising R1m for students in need.

“We did it! We raised R1,000,000 in five days! Ahhhhhhhh! Oh my gosh! We did it!” Lasizwe tweeted.

SA took ownership of the campaign which was started during an Instagram Live between Lasizwe, Sibu Mabena, Takkies and King Aya.

They kicked off the campaign by depositing money out of their own pockets to motivate SA to donate R10 to the cause.
