The Food for Life organisation is one of the biggest that provides fresh and nutritious vegetarian meals to millions of people worldwide daily.
In Estcourt, the team has been working hard during the lockdown to ensure that residents receive a hot and tasty meal.
On Saturday, 400 meals consisting of vegetable breyani and dhall were distributed to residents in Thembalihle, just outside Rensburgdrift.
The Food for Life members meticulously prepared the meal before it was packed up and loaded for Ward 10 councillor Edith Lite to distribute.
In addition to the meals, 108 kiddies’ hampers were also given to the children in celebration of one of the youngest devotees’ birthday.
The Thembalihle community was very grateful for the lunch and goodie bags.
