Africa-Press<\/a> – South-Africa<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>Cape Town – The Asa Majeed Learnership Centre in Tafelsig, Mitchells Plain is preparing to host its biggest feast yet. The non-profit organisation says it\u2019s expecting to serve over 11 500 people on Eid.<\/p>\n

This after the non-profit hosted a massive feeding event over the weekend feeding over 5 000 people as part of its special Ramadaan feeding initiative in Tafelsig and surrounding areas.<\/p>\n

The Muslim centre which has been in existence for 10 years began its feeding scheme programme last year during the Covid-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

The centre\u2019s chairperson Zane Rinquest said: \u201cOur trustees realised that there was a greater need for cooked meals to be provided to the community and from this need, we started our 2020 Ramadaan feeding scheme and we have now evolved into a full-time feeding scheme as well as a learnership centre in the Tafelsig community.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are driven to assist the communities in need because that is what we should be doing. It wouldn\u2019t be right if we sat back and watched vulnerable people struggle.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the help of our donors, we have been able to stand strong even during the pandemic,\u201d said Rinquest.<\/p>\n

The centre\u2019s feeding programme currently feeds 500 people, three times a week though its partnership with a local community soup kitchen run by a resident in the area.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have been fortunate enough to have cooked and provided more than 90 000 meals from last year March to date. During the last 10 days of Ramadaan, we fed 2 000 people on the uneven days of Ramadaan as part of our Laylatul-Qadr drive and on Sunday we fed up to 5 000 people.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe intend to distribute to the surrounding areas where it is desperately needed, thus trying to ensure more people have a warm plate of food on Eid. We are so grateful to aunty Fatima, her mom, and all those who selflessly agreed to cook for the community,\u201d said Rinquest.<\/p>\n

In efforts to expand its reach, the centre is looking towards building a community centre in the area in partnership with the City.<\/p>\n
