Sonke Bonke delivers to the needy
"They had been waiting forever on lists that had been making rounds in the community, without knowing whether they were legitimate or if they were even submitted to those responsible."
ORANGE FARM. – Sonke Bonke, a Non-Profit Organisation donated food parcels to the needy community of Extension 7b in Orange Farm recently.
The donation was made at Radipabi Primary School. The Chair Person of the Organisation, Maxwell Setai told Sedibeng Ster that the donation were made possible after members of the community approached them to assist with the applications for food relief after they had been waiting forever on lists that had been making rounds in the community, without knowing whether they were legitimate or if they were even submitted to those responsible for the packages’ distribution.
“A list of 127 families was then submitted and on the day people were happy to receive the food parcels. We would like to thank the principal of Radipabi Primary School and the School Governing Body (SGB) for offering us the school premises to manage the project. Everything went so perfectly well, with social distance well managed and safety equipment like sanitizers being used from the entrance.”
Setai also thanked Constable Motsapi from the Orange Farm SAPS and his team who made sure everything went well regarding security.
“We would like to call upon those who want to give to the needy communities to contact us as we keep getting more people asking for help,” Setai concluded.
