Spring all year long

In South Africa it sometimes feels like we only have two seasons – summer and winter. But you always know when it’s spring. Days start getting longer and landscapes are a little greener – it’s also a time to sow the seeds of next season’s harvest ... seeds which grow into future benefits.

Just like when you generously support the ACFS; you’re not only helping to feed 21 000 children – you’re also sowing the seeds of their health nutrition and development.

The seeds of health
The ACFS is like the season of spring. Because the kindness of our supporters allows us to spend every day preparing and planting the seeds of health in growing children and poor communities.

Like plants - children need nourishment to grow up healthy. And every child who does is testament to your constant care and support.

Thank you for helping us plant hope in poor communities – our harvest is well-nourished children who’ll grow up to see more summers winters … and springs.
