Can you really imagine Christmas without toys and games for children? Initiated by IAHV, The Nelson Mandela Youth Centre and a donor who sponsored the toys. This was a Christmas Eve toy and snack distribution with chip rolls to 150 children in Welbeduct in Chatsworth KZN. This adds to the joy. It is great and makes you feel good and it keeps the kids excited. Also to make sure that they have a present to open up on Christmas Day.

The James House Community of Imizamo Yethu in Hout Bay were overwhelmed to receive Christmas Food Hampers this year filled with non-perishable groceries. Our hope was that these food packs would ensure these families had food on the table for a special Christmas meal, as well as food during the school holidays while James House was closed.
The success of this initiative was only possible with IAHV’s generous donation, which enabled us to purchase 100 x Yebo Fresh packs for this community. The food packs were well-received with much appreciation and the James House staff and families have expressed their heartfelt gratitude for the continuous support of IAHV and all volunteers involved.
