In collaboration with Habitat for Humanity and Builders Beyond Borders, a community centre was built for members to conduct their work. He further stated that they approached FFP for assistance and received a large quantity of tiles, paint and other essentials to enhance the building.
Mr. Taylor said that the stove would benefit the community in many ways, “providing meals for the children when they attend the Saturday educational programs and assisting with hot meals for pensioners and the elderly when that program is introduced.” He had high praise for FFP’s benevolence.
Public Relations Manager of FFTP, Wayne Hamilton, said that Food For The Poor is not just about providing food and clothing, but also to help and improve the living standards of communities where there is a need.
