The community is encouraged to donate dry soup ingredients that will be bottled for those in need.

“Each jar can feed four people as it can be used as soup or stew. They can also add a piece of meat and/or any fresh vegetables that they like. This will put a nice hot meal on the family table,” he said.
Each jar contains half a cup of rice, half a cup of soup mix, half a cup of lentils, one unwrapped stock cube and one packet of soup powder.
“There are still wonderful, caring people and this is a project that you can support and get involved with,” added McDonald.
