The company has supported the school with sandwiches and fruit - and soup in winter - to the learners at the school, identified by the Peninsula School Feeding Scheme as among the neediest in Cape Town.
"Our school is situated in a poverty-stricken area. Most of our learners depend on the school's feeding scheme as the majority of parents are unemployed and most of our learners go to bed hungry," commented the school's principal, Mabel Valentine.
"It is because of companies like this that contribute so unselfishly to these children, that they can enjoy a warm cup of soup, a filling sandwich and a warm plate of food. We thank them from the bottom of our hearts for enabling us to see the joy and thankfulness on their faces.
