Bowl of Soup for More Inclusive Future: South African Chefs Fight Hunger

South Africans are paying tribute to Nelson Mandela's legacy by donating 67 minutes of their time to volunteer work, one for each year he dedicated to public service.

This year, an expanded group of cooks has set a goal of preparing 67,000 liters of soup to feed the most vulnerable.

Led by the NGO Chefs with Compassion, the initiative repurposes donated or saved produce. It began during the COVID-19 lockdown.

20 million South Africans face hunger, and 63% of households lack food security. Meanwhile, 10.3 million tonnes of food are wasted annually in the country.
