Buckets of Nutrition

Last year, we reached out to you to help families in Lusikisiki who faced the daunting reality of Christmas without their children’s daily school meals. Your incredible generosity raised R2 million, enabling us to deliver food parcels so impactful that families were sustained well into February.

In July 2024, during Mandela Month, you stepped up again. Through your donations and volunteer efforts, we packed and distributed buckets filled with nutritious, non-perishable items, sustaining 2,879 families in need. Together, we delivered buckets valued at R1,439,500, proving the power of collective action and compassion.

This Christmas, we’re asking for your help to bring comfort and nourishment to children with cancer. In partnership with Daily Maverick, our mission is to provide these children, discharged from hospitals, with the vital nutrition they need to continue their fight at home.

Your support can make this season one of hope, strength, and healing for families facing unimaginable challenges.

Each bucket is packed with purpose:

• Nutrition: A thoughtful mix of carbohydrates, proteins, nutrients, and a touch of sweetness.
• Utility: For many families, the bucket itself becomes a lifeline—used to collect water, store food, and more.
• Impact: Every R500 donation provides a bucket filled with life-sustaining ingredients, offering nourishment and dignity to children fighting cancer when they return home for Christmas.
