A huge thank you to WOOLWORTHS for your generous donation!
Because of your kindness, we were able to repurpose these goodies and bring smiles to so many little faces in Delft.
As official food sponsor of the 2025 Cape Town Marathon, we had prepared to feed 24 000 marathon runners at the halfway mark and at the finish line.
When the cancellation of the Cape Town Marathon was announced at 4:45am on Sunday, our team sprang into action to ensure the fresh produce didn't go to waste. By 10am, all available food had been collected by eighteen charities to be distributed to those who needed it most.
Woolworths had organised 26 000 bananas, 20 000 Clemengolds, 280kg of potatoes, 10kg of dried fruit, 5 000 apples, 4 800 dates, 1 800 sandwiches and 600 hot cross buns to be given to runners on the day.
Because the event was cancelled, instead of runners being fuelled by top quality fresh produce, charities in Cape Town were able to feed communities in need – and no food went to waste! 💚
