-
Distribution of the Municipal food parcels will continue tomorrow (Friday, 24 April 2020).
-
The distribution will take place in all 13 wards, equally.
-
The distribution will continue for next few days as we receive the food parcels from service providers.
-
About 11 000 applications were received. Not all applicants will receive the relief due to the limited funding.
-
Applications are verified and distribution will take place in accordance with approved applications.
-
Sassa, Department of Social Development (DSD) and other roleplayers also distribute their own food parcels in conjunction with the Municipality.
-
The same data base is used by the institutions to prevent double-dipping.
-
We appeal to the community not to prevent the organisations from distributing food to the most vulnerable.
-
We appeal people to share, with the needy, applying the principle of ubuntu.
