31/03/20 "URGENT NEEDS LOCKDOWN - COVID-19

Since 31st of March for an undefined period...

On March 26st 2020 the south african governement declared a nationwide lockdown due to Covid-19 pandemie. Only a few days later KeNako asbl. appealed for funds via its Facebook page and emails to help families in urgent needs, especially in the township of Khayelitsha next to Fikelela Children's Centre, the main project of KeNako asbl.

KeNako's aim is to help out families with urgent needs like food and electricity. Fortunately KeNako asbl. can rely on Loyiso Mfuku, a local guide and entrepreneur, whom we know throughout many guided Khayelitsha walking tours since 2012. He has the right connections to the community leaders and was immediately willing to help us with the coordination and distribution of the grants.

Together we decided on the following criterias to qualify for a financial help from KeNako asbl :

- None of the family members must be employed during lockdown

- Preferable elderly people or women being in charge of children

- Families haven't received the governmental grant or any other help from other associations and NGO's
