The ACFS Community Education and
Feeding Scheme was founded in 1945 in the old Witwatersrand area by
Father Trevor Huddleston. Initially very limited in terms of area
service and intended for the combat of malnutrition, the organisation
has far outstripped its original mandate, and now reaches into many
areas of Gauteng, alleviating poverty, running HIV/AIDS awareness
campaigns, setting up and organising community and individual feeding
initiatives and co-ordinating community upliftment programmes.
Affiliated community structures exist today in areas such as Kagiso,
Alexandra, Tembisa, Daveyton,
Kwa-Thema, Tsakane, Dobsonville, Emdeni, Jabavu, Senoaone, Moroka,
Naledi, Diepkloof, Pimville, Meadowlands and Zola. |
