Personal message

The Langrug Soup Kitchen is a community scheme that has been operational for almost 10 years. 
We are based at Batho's Place in Langrug, Franschhoek, Western Cape.

Every Saturday the Soup Kitchen prepares a meal of chicken, rice and vegetable soup for 300 Children in the informal settlement of Langrug in Franschhoek. 

It costs R2500 every week and we need R130000 to operate throughout the year. 

The children we serve are some of the most vulnerable in the area, some are HIV+ or have TB. Many rely on the local school feeding schemes for their food but at the weekend these are not available. This meal maybe the only food they have all weekend.

We also help pensioners who are in need.

We rely totally on donations to operate. 

Through these donations, we can ensure that children do not go to bed hungry. 

We can ensure that stomachs are full so life saving medication can be taken.

Funds will be used to purchase food, gas for cooking and cleaning supplies to ensure that our children receive a hot, nutritious meal every Saturday.
