One year on – reflecting on the impact of the historic Feeding Our Future radiothon
Posted on June 1st, 2023 by Charles Grey
Can you believe a year has passed since the LottoStar (Pty) Ltd #FeedingOurFuture Radiothon took place on Kfm 94.5
On June 1, 2022, we at PSFA and, in particular, the schoolchildren on our feeding programme were blown away by the generosity of everyone and every organisation that donated.
Thanks to Lottostar, Kfm and everyone’s financial contribution, the radiothon raised an outstanding R20 million in just 12 hours. This success marked the largest amount of money raised in 12 hours for a radio station in South Africa’s history.
We are delighted to inform you that the R20 million we received has and is enabling PSFA to do the following:
– PSFA allocated R8.750 million of the donation to serve 5 833 760 nutritious meals, including breakfasts and lunches, to 15 350 learners affected by poverty at 92 schools.
– Due to the success of the radiothon, PSFA guarantees to serve 2 967 040 daily meals to 7 808 learners every year for the next three years.
– The donation will also enable PSFA to expand its early childhood development (ECD) footprint by including additional ECD centres on its feeding programme.
With your continued support, we can grow our ECD feeding programme and accommodate any new school applications to join our feeding programme. It is on this note that we appeal to you to please consider continuing your financial support by donating to PSFA via our website, www.psfa.org.za, in the following ways:
1. Becoming a monthly donor – a small amount each month can make a huge difference in the lives of these children
2. Feed a child for a month at the cost of R66.00
3. Feed a child for a year at the cost of R620.00
4. Feed a class of 30 children for a year at the cost of R18 600.00
5. Donate any amount
Your loyal support will make a real and lasting impact on the education and well-being of the children we feed. Together, we can help break the poverty cycle and give these children a chance to build a brighter future.
Thank you for your consideration and your compassion.
Kind regards
