Canal Walk's Stop Hunger Now
This winter, children who visit Canal Walk Shopping Centre will be experiencing the finest theatre in the country, Alice in Wonderland, and playing their part in providing 250 000 meals to Stop Hunger Now.
Canal Walk will donate R5 from each ticket sold, as well as the proceeds of programme sales to Stop Hunger Now. The centre will also play host to "Meals in Memory" packing events over two weekends prior to Mandela Day on July 18.
Since its inception in 2000, charitable causes have been close to the heart of the Canal Walk Children's Theatre.
The highly nutritious meals contain rice, soya, dehydrated vegetable mix and a fortification pack of 23 essential minerals and vitamins specifically formulated to combat malnutrition (complying with the UNICEF standard).
Last year, with the proceeds raised by Canal Walk's production of Peter Pan, Stop Hunger Now, Canal Walk packed 67 000 meals on Mandela Day. This year they are smashing the records with an incredible 250 000 meals scheduled for packing over two weekends.
They are calling on companies and organisations to sponsor a packing line and to provide up to 25 volunteers to help pack the meals.
