Nomthandazo Children's Care Centre is situated in Daveyton and cares for 170 disadvantaged children from the ages of 6 months to six years old. For the last 5 years we have been running a soup kitchen from the centre and currently we are feeding around 100 families a day.
We have launched a project where we will be handing out food parcels to these families and we would like you to get involved by sponsoring a family or making a donation towards the cost of these groceries. We have found that an average cost of feeding a family is R380.00 per fortnight. Each Hamper consists of the following:
Grocery Item Unit Cost x100
Maize Meal 12.5kg R4395.00
Oil 2ltr R1995.00
Pilchards 4x425g R4200.00
Corned Meat 2x300g R2750.00
Mixed Veg 4x410g R1860.00
Sugar 5kg R2995.00
Salt 500g R639.00
Tea 200 bags R4199.00
Soya Mince 10x100g R3795.00
Tomato & Onion mix 6x255g R3179.00
Sugar Beans 10x500g R5995.00
Total Per Fortnight R36 002.00
We rely entirely on the private sector and in order to help us in raising the necessary funding we offer a variety of hampers to you for sponsoring a family. We will be trying our best to hand out food parcels every alternate friday but if we cannot meet that quota we are commited to handing out food parcels once a month.We invite you to join us or monitor our progress right here on the website.
We sincerely hope that you are able to assist us in maintaining this project.
