The FIG Network will be going to a small community of about 36 families who live in adverse conditions (which have worsened since the onset of the cold).
Strandfontein informal settlement pictured above. The FIG network visited the community last year to deliver basic groceries.
We plan to make a large pot of food and hand it out to about 216 people.
If you can assist with ingredients, can volunteer to help prepare the food or would like to join us when we go to Strandfontein please contact us on thefignetwork@gmail.com.

Please indicate your availability to assist us in this Weekend’s Project: Vygieskraal.
The Vygieskraal area was devastated by a fire on Monday night. 70% of the residents are Muslims who are currently fasting for the month of Ramadaan. 250 people (including 15 infants were left homeless)

We, at the FIG Network, would like to do our bit by donating clothes, groceries and making a big pot of chicken dahl.
We call on our volunteers to help us in this endeavour. We need people to help us sort clothes, prepare the food and pack the groceries.
Reply send a mail to thefignetwork@gmail.com and put “ Malick” in the subject line if you are able to help.
* Please circulate this info and feel free to bring along anything you feel may benefit these distraught people.
