A Mitchells Plain community needs your help to feed 500 children before the year ends.
Messages have been posted all over social media for two weeks, appealing for donations to arrange a lunch for children in Tafelsig this Saturday.
One of the organisers, Latifah Jacobs, says there is a need to feed children everywhere in the community.
“I have been assisting many such initiatives since 20 December. I am just a plain individual who wants to assist,” she says.
“One of the other organisers has a local soup kitchen and she feeds 250 children. So we decided why not more children and pushed the number up to 500 children.”
Donations have been coming in but Latifah needs your help to assist them to reach their goal.
“We have the party packets sorted for the children and we are hoping to make an extra 100 party packets as we don’t want to run short,” she says.
“We will be hosting the party at noon on Saturday, 30 December, at the Tafelsig Community Centre.
“We are also still awaiting feedback from SAPS as we have asked for assistance from them for safety reasons."
Latifah says they require Items like toys, goodies, juice, chicken, mince or meat, to serve up on the day.
If you would like to assist, call Latifah on 071 589 3409.
