Emergency food & shelter

Relief reaching a household on the day it was needed.

When a family loses its provider, the gap opens within days. Our relief programme exists to close that gap quickly and without humiliation.

Each parcel is assembled to feed a household of five for a fortnight: maize flour, beans, rice, cooking oil, salt, sugar and soap. Where a home is unsafe or unroofed, we work with local artisans to make the necessary repairs.

Distribution is arranged with the local council so that the families most in need are reached first, and so that nobody has to queue in public to prove their hardship.
