What legacy do we want to leave behind?

As human beings we tend to ask ourselves questions that allow us to reflect on the betterment of ourselves and allowing us to reflect on the time that passed. How many of us ponder that our time on earth is limited and want to make a difference in the lives of others, but have never taken the first step? The sad reality of life is that time is something we want most, but what we tend to use the worst. What is strange is that time always has a way of showing us what truly matters, therefore many of us has a turning point in our life when we want to make difference in the lives of others or to leave behind a legacy when we depart this earth. What we seem to forget is that one needs to walk within that legacy on a daily basis in order for it to become reality in the end.

Today we managed to provide 1,300 meals to the community in Khayelitsha, Parkwood, Lentegeur, as well as our elderly at Beitul Aman Old Age Home in Wynberg taking the total mouths fed to date to 24,250. Although our goal since starting in April 2021 was to feed 29,000 of the impoverished and destitute, despite not meeting our goal we are proud of what has been achieved in this short time period. Our focus during our journey has been more than just feeding, providing relief to those in need in other areas, such as sheltering the homeless and providing comfort to our women by providing sanitary pads, amongst other initiatives which includes supporting families.

We would like to take the opportunity to thank all our sponsors, the team and for all your prayers which allows us to continue feeding the impoverished and destitute.

So to end off, I ask the question, “When are you going to reflect on your time spent on this earth and are you willing to do better with the remaining time left, because a life well lived will always have been long enough”. Please support our initiatives as it will make a difference in the lives of others.

Below are some pictures of today’s initiative.
