Queuing for the
kindness of a meal
It makes no difference to this little girlthat it’s World Food Day on 16 October…because she wakes up hungry every day.
But our community food kitchens – all 55 of them have had to reduce rations.High food prices give them no choice. From serving 300 meals a day per kitchen to only 150, it’s harder for our kitchens to stay open without the kindness of friends like you. |
That’s why we need you now to help spare underprivileged children and their families from starvation.
It doesn’t take long for a lack of food to give malnutrition a stranglehold on a child’s development. You see misery and desperation in the faces of the children who line up in queues, hoping for something to eat.
But it’s supporters like you that keep our community kitchens open. Will you help provide a hot, nourishing meal for these children?
With our wet, cold winters in the Cape, coughs and colds can turn into pneumonia when little ones are undernourished and weak. Please give them the gift of survival…
Soya stew, beans and rice – it’s not fancy, but it saves lives. And to the hungry people who count on these basic meals, it’s the answer to prayers.
Won’t you be the answer to their prayers today?
