You provided food for a child...Thank you!

Thanks to your generosity, a child in South Africa had a nutritious meal today.

I’d like you to meet Thando, a bright 5-year-old boy who lives with his dad. Before your support, Thando's stomach would ache with hunger during the day, and sometimes he would even go to bed hungry. 

Despite Thando's young age, he quickly learned that there was not enough food available for both him and his dad. Sometimes they had to share a slice of bread, and that was all he would get to eat.

However, thanks to the generosity of friends, Thando is now attending school, where he receives a warm meal and two snacks. With a full belly, he has the energy to learn, play, and dream. His dad told us, “When Thando is at school, I know he is safe, cared for, and he smiles again.

And when there is no school, the family will get a food basket filled with nutritious meals and snacks. How amazing is that! 

Your gift didn’t just fill a plate; it gave Thando the strength to thrive in school and provided his dad with the resources and support he needed to secure a job, enabling him to provide for Thando. 

On behalf of Thando, his father, and all the children whose lives you are changing, thank you for providing dignity, strength, and life-saving support.
