Daily Bread sends warm Christmas and festive season wishes to Joburg North community
DOUGLASDALE – McGinley added that the year 2020 taught them as an organisation to be resilient and fight every day to lend a helping hand to the poor.
The Douglasdale-based non-government organisation Daily Bread, that helps vulnerable people who live around the area, has described the year 2020 as a year that wreaked havoc on many people’s lives.
Daily Bread founder Charmaine McGinley wished Douglasdale community and all the organisation’s sponsors a merry Christmas and a happy New Year as they usher into 2021.
She said her organisation could have not seen this Christmas and festive season if it wasn’t for the endless support of local people and businesses.
“Community members played such a critical role in assisting the NGO during an unprecedented year 2020, a year that no one saw coming. A year that wreaked and caused havoc to many lives and the poor people once again bore the brunt. But the sponsors carried our NGO on their shoulders that enabled us to do more.
McGinley added that the year 2020 taught them as an organisation to be resilient and fight every day to lend a helping hand to the poor.
“If 2020 taught us anything, it was that we need to look out for one another and that ‘service’ is the new ‘en vogue’ and it is the only way we, as humanity, can exist. So on that note, I would like to wish our community and our sponsors a merry Christmas and happy 2021 filled with more success and less challenges.”
She urged community members to continue with their unwavering support to make the Christmas season memorable for the poor after they went through hell following Covid-19 pandemic outbreak early this year.
