Pride Milling will donate more than 41 tons of maize meal to the Humanitarian Empowerment Fund over the next 6 months as part of their COVID-19 relief initiative.

The Humanitarian Empowerment Fund (HEF) is involved in the upliftment of many lives and communities in Gauteng. During the Covid-19 Coronavirus pandemic in South Africa, they have responded by helping those who do not have the means to help themselves during the countrywide lock down. Those that need immediate aid during this period are the poor, the widows with children, orphans and the aged who live in impoverished communities.

When the HEF reached out, we made the decision to donate 550 bags of 12.5kg Pride Super Maize Meal every month from September 2020 until February 2021. Each month’s donation will bring relief to 550 families affected by the Lockdown and Covid-19, and by the end of the period a total of 41.25 tons of maize meal will have been donated.
