Nomhle Sindane (35) said community members recently helped her fix the damaged structure, but she fears it could collapse again when there is strong wind or heavy rain.
She said she has been living in the shack for 10 years and often has to sleep at neighbours’ houses when the weather gets bad.
I don’t feel safe here and I don’t want to be a burden to my neighbours.
Nomhle told Daily Sun she had to send her child to live with her aunt as the shack was not safe for the child.
The unemployed mother said she used to get piece jobs on farms, but could no longer work as she suffers from asthma.
She is now appealing to members of the public to help her with anything they can spare, including poles to strengthen the shack.

“I’m pleading with everyone to donate anything. It can even be poles so I can balance the shack,” she said.
Nomhle said she would also appreciate any job opportunity that could help her earn an income.
“All I need is help and I’d appreciate anything,” she said.
She hopes that kind-hearted people will come forward to help her get a safer place to live.
