Fund Raising Event - 07th July 2012


We are currently feeding 200 under-priviliged children, but due to demand from this community, the total has increased to 400 children. We are also looking at extending the feeding scheme into other extensions in this community and we estimate that we will be feeding about 800 children within the next couple of months.
The planned event for the 16th June 2012, unfortunately has to be postponed due to lack of support from people that we have asked to assist us. We will be having the event on the 07th July 2012 at Die Fakkel High School, Sports Grounds, Rifle Range Road,
