Thanks to the generous donations we have received, our still rudimentary but funcitoning soup kitchen in the Eastern Cape was able to feed a huge crowd for World AIDS Day on 1 December. This would not have been possible even 6 months ago and the pictures attest to satisfied tummies and the gratitude of those whose lives are so devastingly affected by AIDS in S. Africa still in 2014.
We are reaching out and writing grant proposals and have received an award. Life in Bedford is truly hard and we scrap and use every resource we have to feed the many who come daily for a hot meal. We want to do more and use our resources to the best of our abilities.
The attached photos show our work - we eat outside and eat simply, but we are feeding young and growing as well as old and we have become an important resource in the community.
We hope to do much more.
