The Ernest Foundation is urgently seeking a donation of a functional fridge or deep freezer to significantly enhance our capacity to store and distribute food for the vulnerable communities we serve in Orange Farm, South Africa.

Support Meal Programs: Efficiently manage ingredients for our community meal programs, allowing us to prepare and serve healthy, fresh food to children and families in need. Handle Larger Donations: Accept and store larger quantities of donated food items, preventing spoilage and maximizing the impact of generous contributions. Ensure Food Safety: Maintain proper temperatures for food storage, adhering to safety standards and protecting the health of our beneficiaries. We are looking for a unit in good working condition, whether a standard fridge, a large refrigerator, or a deep freezer. Your donation of this essential appliance will directly contribute to our ability to provide nutritious food and improve food security for countless individuals in our community. Drop-off Location: The Ernest Foundation, 9929 Stretford 6, Orange Farm, 1841. Contact for Pick-up/Enquiries: 068 412 5933 or ernestfoundation1@gmail.com
