They could distribute food packages to over 30 senior citizens with the help of donors.
Oosthuizen said the initiative has helped those in need put bread on the table.

The church donated food parcels.

“The aim is to assist wherever possible and is an attempt to show our elders they are cared for and loved dearly, even though we cannot reach everyone.
“Most of these families depend on social grants, which makes it difficult for them to cover all their needs,” he said.
