AS POST newspaper celebrates a remarkable 70 years of serving South Africa’s communities, it embraces its enduring commitment to uplift lives through the launch of a heartfelt initiative: the ‘Adopt a child’ partnership with Nourish to Flourish.
This collaborative effort aims to bring essential nourishment to the most vulnerable children within our communities - something that resonates deeply with POST's mission to serve humanity.
The partnership, which officially kicks off this week, aligns perfectly with the papers ethos as the voice and heart of the community.
For decades, the POST has been a steadfast advocate for important local issues, and now, in this significant milestone year, it seeks to make a tangible difference in the lives of children who need it most.
Nourish to Flourish is a feeding programme dedicated to providing nutritious meals to underprivileged children.
For just R200 a month, generous readers and community members can step forward as monthly sponsors to help feed a child in need. This manageable cost transforms the act of giving into an accessible way for everyone to make a positive difference.
We are incredibly excited about this partnership. Pujya Swami Abhedananda, a key figure behind N2F, is also playing a vital role in this campaign.
Swamiji is not just the guiding force behind Nourish to Flourish (N2F) - he is a beacon of compassion, wisdom, and selfless service. His vision extends beyond merely feeding the hungry; it is about uplifting humanity by restoring dignity and hope to those who need it most.
At POST, we have always believed in the power of storytelling to inspire change. When I look at the work Swamiji is doing, I see a story of unwavering devotion to humanity, a story that deserves to be told—not just in print, but in the hearts of everyone who comes across it.
Through the ‘Adopt a Child’ campaign, we are not just funding meals; we are planting seeds of kindness, security, and hope in the lives of our children. With his guidance and the collective strength of our community, I truly believe we can build a future where no child suffers from hunger.
Swamiji often reminds us that seva (selfless service) is the highest expression of love, and it is through love that real transformation happens. This initiative illustrates what we stand for: community support and uplifting the most vulnerable amongst us.
Together with Nourish to Flourish, we can ensure that no child goes to bed hungry.
To become a monthly sponsor and help change a child's life, participants can visit www.n2f.co.za. This simple click has the potential to ignite hope and create a brighter future for underprivileged children, ensuring that they receive the nutrition they desperately need to thrive.
I encourage everyone in the community to join hands and support the "Adopt a Child" programme.
Join the POST in its 70th-anniversary celebration by making a difference in a vulnerable child's life.
