Cape Town - A Cape Flats teacher has collaborated with volunteers to make sure poor families are fed during lockdown.
“I decided to fill the gap and started a feeding scheme in Kewtown for vulnerable children. I approached five women in the area to distribute the pre-packed food among the needy children. It quickly grew to 500 people as adults also came to look for food,” said Abrahams. Meals are distributed five days a week from five distribution points across Kewtown, and for the remainder of the week meals are taken to Bishop Lavis to be distributed.
Volunteer Roslyn Rive said her son attended the school and that was how she got involved in the initiative.
