HOPE Cape Town Distributes Trees for Arbour Week
Hope Cape Town recently distributed trees and vegetable seeds as part of their programme for Arbour Week.
Ten grape, orange, peach and fig trees as well as a box of spinach, onion, cabbage and beetroot seeds were distributed to various projects that the organisation currently supports including Emily’s Play School and Joyce’s Soup Kitchen in Sir Lowry’s Pass, the Mannenberg Aftercare Centre and the Hope Cape Town Community Outreach Project in Blikkiesdorp.
According to HOPE Cape Town Donor Relations Manager, “In keeping with the spirit of Arbour Week, we distributed and helped plant various fruit trees and vegetable seeds that can help sustain efforts to feed people in various impoverished communities where we currently have a presence. The projects that we support all have vegetable gardens that are used to provide ingredients for meals that are prepared as part of feeding schemes. It is an ongoing challenge to ensure that we can feed the needy in these communities and we call on the public to visit some of our projects and help us to bring hope to others.”
