LG Electronics and Maisha Magic have concluded the first season of Make Life Good, a six-part reality series that features 24-hour upgrades of community organisations using LG equipment, according to a statement issued in Nairobi on July 22, 2026.

The season finale focuses on the makeover of Johannesburg’s Moses Molelekwa Arts and Music Centre, led by Pan-African public relations executive Perpetual Kendi. The centre supports young musicians and artists from underserved communities. The partners said the renovation introduced upgraded facilities and appliances intended to improve the usability of the space for learning and creative development.

The programme, hosted by television personality Jessica Nkosi, is framed around themes of gratitude and Ubuntu. Across the season, six participants—described by the organisers as “Achievers”—worked with LG’s design and construction teams to renovate community facilities within 24 hours, the statement said.

Earlier episodes featured mountaineer Saray Khumalo, football figure William Okpara, entrepreneur and author Thandi Mavata, data and analytics executive Esther Munyi and filmmaker Adze Ugah, according to the release.

While the featured makeovers were carried out in South Africa, LG Electronics East Africa’s involvement positions the content within the company’s regional brand and corporate citizenship footprint, at a time when consumer electronics firms are increasingly using media partnerships to reach audiences across the continent and deepen local market relevance.

The statement said the renovations targeted practical constraints in community operations, such as food preparation, hygiene, laundry and learning environments. It cited upgrades at facilities including LIV Lanseria and Botshabelo Babies Home, which received refrigerators, microwave ovens and dishwashers, while other sites were equipped with washing machines, washer-dryer combinations and dryers.

Youth-focused organisations named in the release include the Bold Men Skills Program, The House Group and the Moses Molelekwa Arts Foundation. These sites received televisions and audio equipment for education, skills development and events, according to the statement. Some facilities also received air conditioning systems.

Jessica Nkosi, the show’s host, said the series aimed to demonstrate what coordinated support can achieve for community groups.

“I strongly believe we changed people's lives; watching them walk into these spaces and get surprised by how they had been transformed was incredibly emotional. Every organisation we visited was genuinely in need of support, so being part of this journey has been a real honour,” Nkosi said.

Donghun Lee, President of LG Electronics East Africa, said the company would continue using storytelling to spotlight community initiatives.

“The end of this season marks the beginning of an even bigger journey for LG. Across Africa, there are countless changemakers whose work deserves to be seen and celebrated. We remain committed to creating platforms that amplify these stories while demonstrating how innovation can help communities thrive,” Lee said.

Jane Kariuki, Head of Marketing at LG Electronics East Africa, said the series was designed to connect technology and community needs.

“Make Life Good has shown what is possible when purpose, technology and community come together. We are incredibly proud of what this series has achieved and grateful to every Achiever and organisation that opened their doors and shared their stories,” Kariuki said.

For Kenya’s media and consumer market, the partnership reflects a broader trend in which broadcasters and brands co-produce content to build audience engagement across East Africa’s pay-TV ecosystem while aligning corporate narratives with social impact themes. The distribution on Maisha Magic East also underscores the role of regional channels in circulating pan-African programming.

According to the statement, all six episodes are available on LG’s official website, and the final episode is scheduled to air first on Maisha Magic East (DStv Channel 158) on Wednesday, July 22 at 11:00am EAT.
