In October, members of the Mamelodi Sundowns admin, along with our players and coaches, volunteered to pack and deliver food parcels for World Food Day. This is not the first time that our club, or members of the team, have given back to our communities, but this was the first time that the Mamelodi Sundowns Foundation participated in a feeding initiative with FoodForwardSA.
FoodForwardSA is South Africa’s largest food redistribution charity that have a very simple but aspirational vision “A South Africa without Hunger”. As a successful soccer team with ambitious goals of our own, the club connected with the values of the noble Non-Profit Organisation and were honoured to take part in the first (of many) food packing projects. You can find the details of this unforgettable event in The Mamelodi Sundowns Foundation Joins The Fight Against Hunger article in the pages to follow.
However, the food parcel project was not the only community development initiative that your team was part of. October 11th was ‘International Day of the Girl Child’, an important date in our calendar to promote the empowerment of girls and the fulfilment of their human rights- while also highlighting the challenges that girls all over the world face.
