Help APD Nelson Mandela Bay - Empowering Abilities by donating food to provide critical food parcels for our disadvantaged community based beneficiaries
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
APD NMB’s Social Work Department provides underprivileged community support to approximately 2000 families per annum and conduct regular Community Outreach projects within the most poverty stricken communities of the Nelson Mandela Bay Metro. Our services include: • Family Counselling • Disabled Parking Disc Applications • Disability Grant Assistance • Wheelchair & Assistive Device Assistance • Special Needs School Referrals • Rehabilitation Services • Disability Awareness Community Initiatives Our visits predominantly highlight an evident and desperate need for food, the majority of our beneficiaries and their households are solely reliant on grants to support them. The current rates of unemployment and the rise in the economy increases the challenges faced daily to put food on their tables. We are sourcing support to crate food parcels for our beneficiaries who are most in need, food donated will be packaged and distributed by our Social Work team to reach those most in need. Your support and assistance will be greatly apprecaited.
