The one
bread can feed a community organisation offers to assist where the is a need to
children and community members who are suffering financially.
The one bread can feed a community was founded in 2019 by
Mr. Nqoba Thabede who is an educator by profession. This organisation is based
in a small town in Kwazulu-Natal, Pongola they don’t have branches outside
Pongola, but Mr. Thabede has bigger plans for the organisation to expand.
The organisation does many things in the community
including a feeding scheme whereby they visit certain household with groceries
and some other good things to make sure that they don’t go to bed hungry.

Mrs. Thandekile Nkosi who was helped by the organisation
said, “For days we would go to bed hungry, me and my children until one of our
neighbours told Mr Thabede he was touched and om that day my family was well
sorted, and we never went to bed hungry again.”
The organisations’ main purpose is to reach every family in
need and assist children with school uniform. The organisation provides
shelter, clothes, food, blankets and quality education.
When asked what they hope to achieve with this organisation, Mr Thabede said, “As an organisation what we want to achieve is simple and straightforward, is to help those who are unable to help themselves to give them clothes, food, shelter and quality education. By the end of this year the goal is to help a lot of children around our community and I’m so proud of the changes we’re bringing in the community.”

In February 2022, the organisation managed to donate 12
pairs of shoes in Tholulwazi Primary school, Itshelejuba Primary and Ncotshane
Primary school. 12 children managed to get new shoes at the beginning of the
year.
This organisation thanked community members to give back to
the community by donating money and other things.
Ms Londeka Nyawo one of the donators said,” I am very happy
to see smiling faces from those little faces that’s why I decided to give
something to help those children because I also had a tough upbringing, I know
the situation of being laughed at because of how I dress.”
The one bread can feed a community is there to bring change
and give back to the community by doing good deeds.

The organisation has shown what the word Ubuntu means. They portrayed kindness. Life is full of opportunities that need courage to grab them, and give back to those in need is something that needs to be appreciated every day.
