Help Johannesburg Dream Center NPC by stocking our shelves for those who live in food insecurity
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
Johannesburg Dream Center supports vulnerable individuals and families across Johannesburg with essential food assistance — and we need your help to **stock our shelves**. Our grocery supplies are used to create food parcels and provide practical support to people facing difficult circumstances while they work towards greater stability and independence. We are looking for donations of **non-perishable food items**, including: * Maize meal * Rice * Pasta * Tinned foods * Baked beans * Soup * Long-life milk * Peanut butter * Cooking oil * Sugar * Tea * Breakfast cereal * Flour * Oats * Jars of Hope ingredients **Individuals, families and corporate teams are all welcome to get involved.** Collect a few items, fill a box, run an office food drive or turn it into a friendly challenge between departments, branches or teams. You can even choose one item and see how many your team can collect. Every packet, tin and bag helps us make sure that when someone comes to Johannesburg Dream Center needing food support, we have something available to give. **Help us fill the shelves so we can keep filling food parcels.** Small donations add up to full cupboards — and full cupboards can make a very real difference to a family.
