Victus Christi, Latin for “feeding through Christ”, is a non-profit, self-funded organisation that helps “middle income” people who are struggling to make ends meet.
The market is held every first Saturday of the month, in aid of the organisation.
On February 6, more than 50 stalls offered arts and crafts, while attendees enjoyed a variety of international food that was sold.
Victus Christi currently supports 10 homes for children and the elderly, in Benoni.
Hettie Viljoen, director of Victus Christi, said they give food to the children’s homes on a weekly basis and also distribute to the border community.
On March 5, the organisation will hold their next market, together with a blood drive and shave-a-thon.
