3,3 Million children under the age of 17 go to bed every night without a meal.
Every 6 seconds a child dies from hunger related causes.
And in the Southern Cape alone, there are almost 200 000 people living in poverty.
Shocking facts, don't you think?
Make a difference
You can make a difference this Christmas by supporting the Stop Hunger Now project - a project aimed at feeding the masses of people who cannot afford a simple meal for themselves, or their children.
Stop Hunger Now is a registered non-profit organisation.
STOP HUNGER NOW!
For every R12 you donated to the Stop Hunger Now project this Christmas, 6 people in George will be fed. Simply put, this means that for a mere R2 you can feed one mouth.
What is R2 to you...?
How it works
The Stop Hunger Now goal is working together to stop hunger in South Africa.
Each Stop Hunger Now meal package is a highly nutritious, dehydrated meal comprised of rice, soy, vegetables, flavouring and 21 essential vitamins and minerals. Each package provides a reasonable serving for six people.
