Over the week ending with the 27 March distribution, we received approximately 2.79 tons of non-perishable food, and gave out some 2.43 tons of non-perishable food and much more perishable food to 250 families.

Due to earlier publishing deadlines, the results of the 3 April food distribution are not available as this is written. We expect to include them next week.

Many thanks to everyone who can help us help those in need!
