On December 25, a group of friends, my brother and I, decided to club money together and sponsor meals for the homeless for Christmas day. So off we went to KFC Panorama and bought 103 meals.
We filled up the bakkie petrol tank and took to the streets to hand out the meals; we got a beating from the rain, but the experience was amazing.
We drove down Kliprivier Drive leading all the way to the CBD, Braamfontein, Hillbrow and into Fordsburg. Seeing people appreciate the little we gave them was a rewarding experience.
On occasions when I drive to work, some of the people remember me others don’t, but they don’t have to remember me, I just need to remember to do more.
I encourage anyone who has the means to help the underprivileged. Poverty ultimately, is not something we choose for ourselves. To all my friends who helped to give out food and to those who donated their “millions” thank you!
