This project in Partnership with United Technical Equipment Co. (Pty) Ltd. (UTEC), Mr.Vernon Kistan the CEO of UTEC runs a Food Hamper Campaign every year.
1000 boxes of food hampers are packed and distributed to those in need. UTEC distributes the food hampers to various Church groups, shelters and for the destitute in Lenasia, Eldorado Park, Soweto and many other surrounding areas.
Previously volunteers assisted in packaging of the hampers, but due to Covid 19 the packaging was outsourced.
The Ikageng Itireleng People’s Centre in Orlando West, Soweto, was one of the beneficiary to receive the food hampers.
On behalf of Ikageng, I would like to extend a heartfelt sincere, gratitude for your support and dedication to our cause, your support has not gone unnoticeable, we appreciate and value you! Thank you for always joining us in making a difference in the lives of orphaned and vulnerable children and youth.
I would like to acknowledge receipt of 200 food hampers on 13 November 2021. Your donation has impacted the lives of over 800 beneficiaries, every time we distribute a food parcel, we are filled with gratitude that we could be an instrument at a time like this, where we can extend HOPE to the hopeless, we say this from the hearts of our families and households, who struggle daily with food security.
Thank you so much to you and the team which made this donation possible. Please know that this could not have been possible without your generosity.
200 families or 800 vulnerable children, orphans, women, disabled, and elderly people have food on the table. Thank you so much!!

Hot and delicious meals prepared by volunteers + 25 food hampers and face masks distributed in Margate, Chatsworth, Waterloo and Verulum, KZN.
We had a great response to this year’s Mandela Day Fundraiser to gift 3rd Wave Family-Packs to 100 kids and families in Vredendal, a community in the West Coast of Cape Town who are part of the James House Child & Youth Care community. A special Family-Pack would assist them during the 3rd Wave of the Covid-19 Pandemic. Despite the pandemic being a difficult time for everyone, it is heart-warming that so many donors were willing to help another family, despite their own circumstances.
Each 3rd Wave Family-Pack included a combination of groceries, winter warmers, hygiene items and educational material:
The James House Board, management, staff and beneficiaries of Vredendal have expressed their heartfelt gratitude to all involved. The Family-Packs were well-received with much appreciation and they are forever grateful for the continuous support and donors who make a difference in the lives of the underprivileged communities.
We had received 140 food hampers packed with 27 different items into plastic bags ready for distribution. Volunteers assisted in the distribution to families in the Copesville area, Northdale, Central Pietermaritzburg, Edendale, and various surroundings.
The recipients were extremely grateful and thankful for the food parcels.
Well done to the AMAZING team of volunteers in KZN. The first batch of food hampers was delivered to the Tafta Old Age Home, Durban.
200 food hampers handed out on 26 July 2021 in Newlands, East and West, Overport and Kenville in KZN.
