Food for community

In the heart of Kenya, the Tsavo region is home to a diverse community that relies on sustainable and reliable food supplies to thrive. As we continue to face challenges such as climate change, population growth, and economic fluctuations, it is essential to prioritize the availability and accessibility of nutritious food for everyone in Tsavo.

When things get really bad and the drought bites, SAWCT with the help of community elders and priests make a list of the neediest families and then carry out a food drive to help them.

Friends and family came together and donated either money or in kind to the Trust in a food drive, this initiative aimed to provide essential nourishment to families facing hardship. In total we regularly feed approximately 500 families.

One hamper consisted of

  • 4 packets of maize flour
  • 1 packet of wheat flour
  • 2 kgs sugar
  • 2 kgs lentils
  • 3 kgs rice
  • 3 kgs red beans
  • 1 liter cooking oil
  • 500 gms tea leaves
  • 500 gms salt
  • 500 gms stock cubes
  • 500 gms soap
  • 1 liter drinking water

In addition to this, every 2 weeks there a few selected families receive some ration which includes fruit and vegetables, milk and some dry goods as they have no means to make ends meet.

Every donation, no matter how small, makes a significant difference in the lives of our neighbors. Together, we can build a brighter, more resilient Tsavo, where everyone has access to the nourishment they need to thrive.

Join us in this vital mission and help make a positive impact on the lives of our fellow community members. Together, we can make a difference.
