Food Relief

The United Nations World Food Programme has estimated that there are 7.1 million of Zimbabwe's 12 million people needing food aid over the next twelve months. This is due to the economic situation,several drought years and unavailablility of seed and other inputs.

For more than three years, Kiwilink has been arranging food deliveries to the rural people living in it's target area. An import licence has been obtained and the meali meal staple has been located in South Africa. This has been trucked north for distribution to the most needy surrounding each church. A 30 tonne truckload of meali meal costs NZ$20,000 and feeds 2,000 people for one month. For NZ$667, you can donate one tonne of food so click here to donate now.
