Pretoria 136 R2 Project

Dear Brothers,

Our first R2 Project for 2023 was held at Lynnwood Lane on the 4th of February 2023. The beneficiary chosen for this event was Laerskool Louis Leipoldt.

The general idea of this type of project is to help gather some needed non-perishable foods and general-use products to help get the families through the year. Sadly, there are less fortunate families and children that can do with an extra meal or lunch bag to keep them warm and full during the months. We were absolutely astonished by the number of generous donations we got from the community on the day. We had people going into food lovers Market to only buy one or two small items but ended up bringing an entire trolley full of items to us. In our lives, we all make choices to either help or not help others. You always have this warm sense of fulfilment that arises once you conclude a project that you know will ultimately help someone have a healthy and warm meal. We managed to gather groceries products to the value of R8 975.00 in the space of a few hours.

As a proud member of Round Table Pretoria 136, we would like to thank everyone that contributed on the day, as well as the Marketing Manager from Brooklyn Mall that was instrumental in making this happen for us on this day.

"A brother is a friend God gave to you, a friend is a brother your heart chose for you. Other than a parent’s love, I feel that there is no greater bond in love than there is between brothers.”

Kind Regards Wian Vogel
