New local feeding project needs your assistance
A new local NPO organisation, the Boksburg Bread-Bin feeding project, is planning to donate food parcels on a regular basis to needy children at Goud Rand Primary School, to households earning low incomes and elderly people in Boksburg.
According to Kobus Uys, chairperson of this project, they will be asking for assistance from the Department of Social Development to assist in screening people in need of food aid, to make sure that disadvantaged people are helped.
“Extra food donations will also be redistributed to other NPO organisations, churches and NPO crèches who are also in need of assistance,” said Uys.
“The project will also assist unemployed people in their organisation to earn an income through street collections.
“We are also looking to help the unemployed to start their own projects or home-base businesses, to uplift their lives. This will be done through the Foundation for the Development of Africa and the Department of Trade and Industry.”
Anyone who would like to offer food donations, furniture, appliances and clothing are urged to contact Uys on 074 420 6494.
