JAMBO contributed $315 to Abalimi Bezekhaya. This is an organization working with development and environmental restoration in Cape Flats. Cape Flats is an impoverished area outside Cape Town which was partitioned as a “Black” residential area under the apartheid regime. Due to poor management, overcrowding, and the unjust policies of the apartheid era, Cape Flats became environmentally devastated. Abalimi Bezekhaya is working to “re-green” the area by promoting gardening and tree planting efforts.

Last week the UN declared a famine in Somalia as thousands of families
left their homes in a desperate search for food and water.

Many are facing the worst drought in sixty years. Small reservoirs have
gone dry. Bigger ones have been reduced to pools of sludge. Crops are
failing, farm animals are dying and children are going hungry.

Oxfam supporters are saving lives by funding projects to bring food to
people facing severe hunger and truck water to villages where all other
sources have dried up. This week’s $250 donation to OXFAM by JAMBO is
matched, so it becomes $500. Thank you for your support.
