Give Christmas in a bowl this year

Give to those in need this festive seaon

The season of giving is upon us and for many that means gifting family members and friends. How about considering the gift of a nourishing meal to poor children this festive season?

A donation of just R50 per month can enable JAM to feed a child. Donor relations manager at JAM, Burton Moonsamy said a large number of children do not have sufficient daily nourishment. “Unfortunately Christmas will be another ordinary day due to the routine of hunger and poverty that their families are caught up in. These children from poor families and communities are unable to access educational opportunities because science tells us that hungry children cannot learn effectively. They are robbed of their future.”

A bowl of porridge not only keeps children full but keeps them in school. The organisation can only continue to feed those less fortunate through donations. An entire family can also be fed for as little as R400. “Donations help us restore the meaning of Christmas to these children and families. Every child deserves a future and certainly a better Christmas. We would like to challenge you to donate this life-saving gift to those in need. Maybe donate on behalf of someone else?”
