Briefly News also reported that Michael Mxolisi Mtandana (47) and his wife Nondumiso Wowo (41) cook and feed people with soup from their home from Mathanzima Road in Nyanga. The couple told Briefly.co.za that the idea was driven by seeing the struggles which people are going through due to lockdown.

Kids, people with disabilities and the elderly are groups that are hit hard by the pandemic. They took some money from their disability grant and bought three big pots to make soup. They started the project this month and they use at least R400 every week to buy the ingredients.
