The Vlottenburg Community Organisation (VCO) assists more than 80 children in the Wesbank area in Kuils River, Western Cape daily. The organisation offers these children a safe and supportive environment to play, do their homework and eat.
When Shoprite heard about VCO’s amazing work to get these children off the streets and back at school, we immediately wanted to assist.

Hilton Davids, the selfless man who dedicates his life to helping children in Wesbank, said:
In addition to the containers, Shoprite’s Mobile Soup Kitchen also serves at VCO every Wednesday.
