Through the Winter & Back to School Packs Project, IAHV supported Jeppe Phakamisa Ubuntu (JPU) with a generous donation to bring warmth, nourishment and hope to children and families in the Jeppestown and Belgravia communities.
The donation included:
- 120 hoodies, scarves and pairs of gloves
- 600 soup sachets
- 300 meal sachets
- 100 canned soups
JPU is a community-based outreach programme that has been serving children in the Jeppestown and Belgravia communities for many years. Through sport, educational activities, cycling, mentoring and fellowship, the organisation strives to nurture character, build confidence and develop future leaders within the community.
The donation made a meaningful difference, particularly during the cold winter months when many families face significant financial pressure. For some children, receiving a new hoodie was an especially memorable experience, with the excitement and joy on their faces reflecting just how much these simple acts of kindness meant to them.
Beyond providing warm clothing and essential food supplies, the project sent an important message to every child: they are valued, cared for and not forgotten.
IAHV extends its heartfelt thanks to Ms Manisha Narayan, the project lead, for her dedication in making the Winter & Back to School Packs Project possible.
Through initiatives like these, IAHV continues to support vulnerable communities, demonstrating how compassion and collective action can make a tangible difference in people’s lives.
Together, we can bring warmth, nourishment and hope to those who need it most.
