Help4Nam celebrated 2nd birthday

Check this video to celebrate the second birthday and two years of achievements by our member organization Help4Nam Food Bank. This amazing video is made by Claire Collins (age 12 years).

The organization’s birthday was on Human Rights Day, 10 December 2022. The organization is set up in UK with the aim to help stop hunger in children (and their families) who live within underprivileged communities in Namibia. It operates food banks within 3 communities in: Windhoek, Rehoboth and Okahandja. Families can access emergency food and toiletry supplies when they are in crisis, struggling to cope financially and unable to feed their children due to unemployment, ill health or other problems constraints.
