“Christmas is a time for sharing and a time for giving. It would be a great achievement if we can help put food on 20 family’s tables.”
The initiative entails identifying families in need of groceries who will then be assisted through the #Ndimlo programme by receiving food parcels which they can use over the festive season.
“Residents and businesses can donate non-perishable foods, clothing, toys as well as books which can be donated to the less privileged over the festive season.
“I believe an individual should consider themselves blessed if Covid-19 has not disrupted their lives in any way or form. The mission of the organisation is to help as many people as possible as we are sailing through unchartered waters and nobody knows what the future holds.
“All organisations need to work together in order to overcome the situation we find ourselves in.”
