Christopher Ferris, brother of Chloe Ferris from West Belfast, funded the construction of a new home in Blanco, South Africa, for a family connected to the R-City youth project. Chloe Ferris died in December 2024 at age 25 after becoming unresponsive in a Belfast city centre nightclub. An inquest determined she asphyxiated after consuming alcohol and cocaine, likely mixed with ketamine without her knowledge.

In May, Christopher Ferris raised nearly £15,000 through a Belfast City Marathon event. He donated the funds to R-City, a North Belfast project that unites young people across community divides. Chloe Ferris had participated in the project and formed a bond with a family named Keisha's, whose home was destroyed in a fire last year.

Christopher Ferris travelled to Blanco with the R-City team to assist in the rebuilding efforts. A memorial bench dedicated to Chloe Ferris was unveiled there. He stated that the initiative helped him process his sister's death and that she would have approved.

Keisha recalled Chloe Ferris encouraging her to persevere and affirming her beauty.
