Good day,
Thank you to each and every individual for reaching out over this period of lockdown. In an extremely trying time globally we saw a community stand together like never before. From every person on the receiving end of a warm meal, thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
We have been able to serve over one million meals during our national lockdown that started in March. More than half of the individuals receiving meals are children and so we are incredibly grateful for what we have been able to do with your support.
Over 2 million children go hungry in South Africa every day. Over and above being malnourished, children are too hungry to attend school or focus on their work.
With Early Learning Centers opening up recently, multitudes of children will rely on school feeding programmes. For many, this means one meal each day.
Due to us being in lockdown, we are currently unable to continue any revamp projects at the moment, but we are looking forward to starting up again once lockdown us lifted.
Through our GlobalGiving account, for this week only, all donations up to $50 will be matched at 50%! Please consider supporting this project during this week.
Thank you for your support.
Kind Regards,
The Love Story team
