Feed 240 families during the long school holidays.

As the December holidays draw near, we are preparing to share the spirit of the season with the families we serve through our annual Holiday Feeding Programme. This initiative ensures that during the long school break, when many children lose access to regular school meals, families are supported with essential food supplies and the assurance of a joyful holiday.

This year, we are delighted to partner with The Kings Family Care Foundation in distributing food packs to all families supported by Turning Point. Through this collaboration, we aim not only to meet immediate nutritional needs but also to bring hope and encouragement to households during a time that can be both festive and challenging.

For many families within our community, the school holiday season can be a period of uncertainty—especially when consistent meals are no longer guaranteed for the children. Through this programme, we hope to bridge that gap by providing food and support that enables families to celebrate together with dignity and peace of mind.

With the help of our partners and supporters, we plan to deliver a variety of essential food items that will sustain families throughout the holiday period. However, to make this possible, we are seeking adequate funding to cover all the necessary resources—from food purchases and packaging to logistics and distribution.

We warmly invite you to give towards this initiative and help us reach every family in need. Your contribution, no matter the size, will make a lasting difference—ensuring that children and parents alike experience the joy and comfort of the festive season.

Together, we can make this December a time of nourishment, community, and celebration for all.

“As a mother of three, the festive season is always bittersweet. While it's a time meant for joy and celebration, it can also be a period of great stress when you're struggling to provide even the basics. Last December, I was one of the fortunate parents who received a food basket through Turning Point's Holiday Feeding Programme, and I cannot express how much it meant to my family.

The basket came at a time when we had very little. With schools closed and no access to the usual meals provided during school time, I worried daily about how I would keep my children nourished. The food basket was not just a parcel of groceries—it was a gift of dignity and joy. It included essentials like rice, beans, cooking oil, maize meal, sugar, salt, among other things, allowing us to enjoy a festive holiday together as a family. For once, my children could laugh and play without the shadow of hunger hanging over them.

This experience reminded me that kindness still exists, and that we are not alone. The Holiday Feeding Programme doesn't just fill stomachs—it brings hope. It eases the burden on struggling parents and ensures that children can experience the magic of the holidays, no matter their circumstances.”

Last year, thanks to the incredible support from donors like you, a total of 223 food baskets were distributed through our Holiday Feeding Programme. The joy and gratitude expressed by the families were overwhelming. We deeply thank you for contributing, and we invite you to continue supporting this impactful initiative.Your generosity helps turn a difficult season into one of love, warmth, and nourishment for the families who need it most.
