Cook up a storm – in a pot
A potjiekos competition will be held to assist the Alberton Child Welfare with funds.
ADRIAAN Hague, a sales associate at RE/MAX Superior, and Yianni Fotiou, owner of The Promise Grill and Seafood, have decided to take hands to help raise much-needed funds for the Alberton Child Welfare (ACW).
ACW is the second most underfunded child welfare on the East Rand.
“We’ve decided to hold a potjiekos competition and then sell the contents at a certain rate per plate,” said Adriaan.
Contestants will vie for several sponsored South African Breweries (SAB) prizes that are up for grabs. All the money raised with the potjiekos competition will be donated to ACW.
“The purpose of this competition is that we want to give back to the community. This will not be the first time that we will be involved in charity work and it won’t be the last,” said Adriaan.
The potjiekos competition will be held at The Promise Grill and Seafood at the Meyersdal Mall on the corner of Hennie Alberts Street and Michelle Avenue from 11:00 to 17:00 on September 26.
