Oasis group is going to provide food parcels to the poverty-stricken Uitsig community today. Councillor Dan Plato has identified a number of needy communities that deserve the food parcels.
Councillor Dan Plato said, that Uitsig is one of the most impoverished places in the Cape flats.
“The place also has one of the highest TB infections, this is because they do not have necessary nutrition and the other reason is that most families do not eat breakfast as it is necessary to eat breakfast before medication.
The clinics told the Uitsig residents to take TB treatment for a period of six months. ”
He added that they are also aware that the food parcels may be a drop in the ocean but it will do a lot to the people as it have proper nutrients.
