Forty-seven adults and seven children are now destitute, but thankfully there were no fatalities or injuries.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Woodlands Dairy was one of the first community supporters on the scene. <\/p>\n<p>Miles added, \u201cThrough our CSI project, Shekinah Soup Kitchen, we sponsored a warm, cooked maize meal porridge breakfast with milk and sugar this morning. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cVia another of our CSI projects, Masikhathalelaneni, we\u2019ve donated milk and more maize meal. Those affected will have porridge on a daily basis, while they\u2019re living in the community hall, until their homes are rebuilt. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cBoth CSI projects have supported the victims with clothing and blankets, and will continue to assist with transportation, cooked meals, food parcels, clothing and homeware where and when needed. Our hearts go out to those affected and we\u2019ll continue to assist until they\u2019re on their feet again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Issued by: Woodlands
