Every day since the lockdown started on 27 March, 500 meals are prepared and this is done without any sponsorship or donations.
The Grade 6 teacher initially planned to feed only children, but hungry adults started coming to get food too. “We are doing what little bit we can to assist and this would have not been possible without the assistance of five ladies who know the community well and do the food deliveries for us.”“We started the same week when the lockdown started, making 500 meals a day,” she says.
“This man is a blessing. He took money that was meant for his daughter’s car and assisted the community.Kewtown resident, Yvonne Jaftha, said: “We, the community of Kewtown, would like to thank Mr. Ebrahim Abrahams for feeding our community.”
