Human Rights

Our Human Rights initiative was established to assist the elderly and children with much needed essentials such as food and water. Many questions were asked why we would provide a hotdog due to its nutritious value and water that does not provide a sustainable solution. When one has nothing, this creates a sense of hopelessness and our aim of this initiative was to create excitement and hope to people in informal settlements letting them know people do care.

Today we managed to feed 1,300 people taking the total mouths fed to 27,350 and provided 1,000 people with a 5 litre clean drinkable water. Additionally we managed to receive further donations of candles and masks which we also provided to the informal settlements. The informal settlements we served today was Valhalla Park, Pooke Road, The Vlei and Egoli.

It is said they water is life, which is true as everything requires water to survive. Although we are dependent on water, there are many lessons we can learn. As you know “Life is like water, if you block one side, it takes another turn to continue its journey.” This is extremely important as we learn that throughout our lives we might experience failure, however we should continue our journey to achieve of goals like water continues its journey despite the obstacles. We hope that the people fed today was given hope and allows them to look at life in a positive manner despite the challenges they face.

We would like to thank the Almighty, the team, volunteers and all our sponsors that made this possible.
