This Mother’s Day at Peddie Development Centre, we honoured the amazing mothers in our community. Alongside a warm meal from our soup kitchen, moms were gifted biscuits and chocolates as a small token to celebrate them and show love for Mothers Day❤️

Serving with Heart Since 2006

In 2006, Peddie Development Centre began a humble soup kitchen in the Zwide area—driven by a simple goal: to ensure no one in our community goes to bed hungry.

Today, we're proud to say we're still going strong! Every Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday we continue to serve warm, nutritious meals to those in need, offering not just food, but hope and dignity.

Thank you to everyone who has walked this journey with us—your support keeps the fire burning and the pots full.

Meet the Heart of Peddie Development Centre

At the core of our mission are passionate women committed to uplifting our community every day.

Nomveliso Ngesi, our visionary Founder and Director, started PDC with a dream to empower others through education and care. Her leadership has impacted many lives.

Tumelo Tshesejane, our incredible Office Administrator, is the engine that keeps everything running smoothly. From managing logistics to supporting every team member, she brings calm, order, and dedication to our daily work.

Vuyelwa Qhashimane, our amazing Soup Kitchen Manager with heart and hands, she oversees the daily preparation of meals, providing nourishment and comfort to hundreds in the community.

She’s got a wonderful team assisting her Nozuko Booi, Nothemba Mosimi, and Nkuleko Mcalu.

Together, they form the foundation of everything we do—and we’re proud to have them leading the way.
