Carrots, onions, potatoes, apples, bread, sauces, instant soup, stock cubes, sugar, coffee, baby formula, cereal, flour, oil, health bars, tissue paper, and an Activated magazine for just over 200 packed-full parcels! Then, off to deliver!

Despite the rain, the distribution was a great success and a blessing! It really did pain us to see the little ones – who have already been through much in their turbulent lives – come out in the rain, just excited to receive some food and care.
