Dinner speech 2020 "Rights of the vulnerable matters"
The video is about the rights of the vulnerable that matters. Most of the people who attended the dinner were running a feeding NPO. The dinner was used to create an opportunity to network with the different NPO's to find out what they are doing. The result was positive. There were two NPO's that will work together with other NPO's in the community.
Feeding refugees.
Khanya is doing what he does best, feeding a refugee. The man said: "Thank you guys, the Lord sent you here as I am hungry and looking for a place to sleep. I am a refugee and sleeping on the street."
The other group were also very glad to receive food and their responses were: "May the Lord bless you and your family.", " Thank you for what you do for us.", " Thank you for the wonderful work you are doing.", "Where do you get the food to give to us?", " May the Lord bless your sponsor."

Rights of the vulnerable matters
TThe dinner was a huge success. Thanks to all the people that contributed to the event and supported the organization. That is with your contributions big or small that we could be able to bring change in the lives of many vulnerable people around us. The lives of every person on this earth matters. Yes, the rights of the vulnerable matter. They deserved to be treated with respect.
The testimony of the below person was motivational. She told the people at the dinner; she met the guy who handed out soup and bread on the street. She said she was hungry and landed on the street and was crying when the man approached her. She told the man that she does not know street life, but circumstances forced her to stay on the street. The guy motivated her and thereafter she met a lady who took her in. The lady assisted her to get her job back. She is a qualified professional nurse.
She thanks Gerald Louw for listening to her and for the soup and bread he gives her while she was staying on the street. Little did Gerald know the person he motivated on the street was a qualified professional nurse but he still treated her with respect.

Rights of the vulnerable matters
Preparing food for the vulnerable. Our upcoming dinner theme is "Rights of the vulnerable matters". Can the vulnerable really say my right matters? What if the one vulnerable being abused by the system and money? I am just asking. Can that vulnerable also freely say that his or her rights matter? We have to work towards a society where the rights of each vulnerable matter it does not matter who the person is. Rights of the vulnerable matters, Rights of the vulnerable matters, Rights of the vulnerable matters.

Giving hope to the vulnerable
There are people out there who need food. They appreciate every little food they get, but there are also those who do not take it. What I realize is that although these people are staying outside, they still want to exercise their right to choose what they want to eat. The below group was very glad to see the team with the food. Some responses were "Thank you for thinking about us.". "May Lord bless you.", "Thank you, I did not eat today.", "I can take for my partner who is sick"

Do they deserve a second change in life
We are serving the marginalized with a plate of food. The people staying here have their own problems and issues to deal with. There are those who ran away from their homes and others who cannot find a place to stay. This informal settlement is a place for them to call home. Drug use is every day happening here. This does not mean that these people cannot change their lives. One person who used to come here is on his way to recovery. The organization showed support and love to the person and today the person is busy with a qualification to better his life.

The NPO members attended the workshop well, and it was very informative as some of the older members talked about their experience in the field. It is very important to train the board members of the organization. They highlighted transparency as very important in the organization. They also highlighted the importance of a fundraising strategy and a marketing strategy.

Feeding without boundaries
Golden Anchor Solid Rock Foundation team is going strong in feeding the vulnerable on the streets. The team goes out and looking for the people who are hungry and in a need of food. The mission of the team is to feed. They want to make sure that people on the street do not go without food. The challenge is that they do not have enough food or funding to provide food to these people. The people are showing appreciation for the work that the team is doing.
In the below picture the person said to the team they must also give food to her partner. She gave them directions to the place where the team can find her partner. The people on the street are looking at the wellbeing of the others on the street.

Feeding waste pickers
Feeding the waste pickers. Waste pickers do not get a formal salary. They depend on the waste they gather to make a living and to survive. This waste picker was grateful to receive a hot meal on a Sunday afternoon.
