HELP US TO HELP PICTURE: @JCOMP
Millions of people in Mzansi go hungry as a result of joblessness, made worse by the pandemic. Initiatives set up by NGOs are helping to ensure nutritious meals are provided to the less fortunate but they need all the help they can get. And this is where you come in

WAYS YOU CAN HELP 1 You can donate excess veggies from your garden to a local soup kitchen or community in need. 2 You can grow excess seedlings which can be donated to a community garden initiative. 3 You can get involved in a local backyard gardener project which teaches people the basics. 4 You can grow vegetables on your pavement which others can pick. 5 You can donate time or money to a local NGO working to alleviate hunger. Do you have a community garden or organisation in your area that is doing amazing things to improve food security and make a difference in the lives of those less fortunate? If so, we’d like to hear from you. Send us the name and a short description of the organisation or project, where it is based, what it does, and how others can get involved. We hope to feature some of these in future. Send your contributions to terry.vdwalt@inl.co.za
