Kagiso Media Hunger Relief Fund: Northfield Methodist Church

BACKGROUND: Kagiso Media, owners of Jacaranda FM and East Coast Radio have put together the KM Hunger Relief Fund to assist communities in need during the drawn out Covid-19 lockdown in South Africa. The most basic need remains food. Over the next two weeks, Jacaranda FM will give a platform to four organizations per day, who actively work within afflicted communities to feed the thousands of families who currently cannot earn a living. We want to know who these community Angels are and how our listener community can assist them. Jacaranda FM will also equally distribute R500 000,00 from the Kagiso Media Hunger Relief Fund to these organizations in the form of AngelRands.

Northfield Methodist Church and the John Wesley Community Centre have been hard at work since President Ramaphosa announced the lockdown!

John Wesley Community Centre, with the support of eMseni Conference Centre Kitchen, is currently supporting and managing the feeding of 584 people at four homeless shelters with three meals per day: That’s 584 people or 1752 meals per day or 52,560 meals per month

In partnership with an NGO we packed 782 Government Food Parcels from the Solidarity Fund that was distributed.

We all have the necessary permits and are taking every possible measure to keep safety first.

Donations of money, food, bread and basic goods have been coming in over the last 60 days.

We don’t know what next week or next month holds, but we know that we are called to serve the community in this time as best we can. More info: www.jwcc.co.za https://www.facebook.com/jwccentre/ https://www.northfield.co.za
