Africa-Press – Namibia. <\/strong><\/span> <\/b>The Adventist Development Relief Agency, an arm of the Seventh Day Adventist Church, donated food hampers to 110 households on Friday, particularly stateless Angolans from Katima Mulilo\u2019s locations.<\/p>\n

According to ADRA country director Wilfred Luyanga, the pressing need for the hunger crisis in Katima Mulilo among families of displaced persons necessitated the donation through sponsorship of N$77 000 from the Global Fund for Jesus, another arm of the SDA church, based in South Africa.<\/p>\n

Among others, the food hampers included 10kg Top Score maize meal, flour, cooking oil, tinned fish, 2kg sugar and rice.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have been running a programme here in Zambezi, called Covid-19 food security recovery project, which ended this July \u2013 and this initiative is to supplement that programme. During Covid-19 we realised that there are some stateless people, especially those who had come from Angola,\u201d ADRA board chairperson Moses Muyunda said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe, therefore, call on government and the business community to join hands with ADRA Namibia as they endeavour to reverse the damage caused by the Covid-19 pandemic among the vulnerable households,\u201d said Muyunda.<\/p>\n

He added the intervention is aimed at assisting about 660 beneficiaries from 110 households.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is hoped that through this intervention, they will at least be fed for a day. While more sustainable interventions are being worked out to help them feed themselves for a lifetime,\u201d said Muyunda.<\/p>\n

Aside from feeding hungry communities, ADRA has had a scheme of empowering peasant farmers with skills and seeds on an annual basis.<\/p>\n

To fight unemployment among Namibians, 24 young people benefited from the ADRA skills programme and are actively contributing to economic development.<\/p>\n
