Summary

Have you ever felt hungry in your life? Maybe for 1 or 2 hours until you open the fridge to make a sandwich. Think about the feeling of that empty stomach calling for food from morning to dusk. We have decided to support our community in responding to their unbearable need of food and are calling YOU to make a contribution to stop rumbling stomachs. We will take care of YOUR generosity to feed our people.

Challenge

The COVID-19 lockdown has left the majority of our communities at home without any income to buy food for their families. Parents are completely distraught by not being able to quench their children's hungers. If we do not act this will cause lots of violence and wildlife poaching.

Solution

We will prepare and deliver food parcels to families in need in the nearby villages where the children of our Environmental Education program come from. One food parcel will include the following items: maize meal , cooking oil, brown sugar, speckled beans, 60 tea bags, tinned fish, soup, soap bars and toilet paper. The total value of a food parcel is 25, including petrol cost to collect the food parcels and delivering them. How many food parcels can you give to them?

Long-Term Impact

Our goal is to deliver 500 food parcels that can feed 4 members of the family for a full week, supporting a total of 2,000 people during this crisis.
