Music For Meals Charity Concert

This year’s Covid-19 crisis has, and continues to have, devastating effects around the globe. In South Africa, this has resulted in food shortages amongst the most impoverished and vulnerable communities. 

Earlier this year Rhino Africa, together with our impact partner Click Foundation and in conjunction with Good Work Foundation, Penreach, Kabokweni Mall (Exemplar REITail) and Matumi Fresh embarked on the Food for Africa Fundraising Drive. To date we managed to distribute over 8 064 bags of maize to over 4 000 families in eight schools surrounding the Kruger Park. 

We can’t thank you enough for the overwhelming support over this difficult time and while school feeding schemes have resumed, many families have lost their incomes during this Covid-19 pandemic and food security is still precarious. We are continuing to raise money for these vulnerable communities with a particular focus on providing maize and fortified porridge for the looming December holiday period.

Music For Meals Charity Concert

Our friends at Ellerman House (in partnership with UCOOK and Rain) are proud to present the Music for Meals Charity Concert. This one-of-a-kind, life-streamed concert will feature 13 celebrated local and international artists with all proceeds going towards short-term hunger relief as well as long-term education and food initiatives in South Africa.

About the author 

Luke Lalin

Born and raised in Johannesburg, Luke ventured to a small town in the Eastern Cape, Grahamstown, where he studied at Rhodes University. Clearly not having studied enough, he then completed a finance degree just for fun - who even does this? Luke is passionate about travelling and was lucky enough to work in the USA for almost 2 years. However, his love for Africa was too strong and he returned home and moved to the spectacular city of Cape Town to pursue a career in the travel industry. Having once been a competitive swimmer, Luke can often be found doing laps in the pool. He is, however, a general fitness junkie and can be found doing anything from cycling, running, mountain biking, triathlon, tennis, squash or anything that gets the heart rate up.

  • Hello, I would like to be one of the performing artists at the next Concert and was wondering how to register to partake in the Charity?

    • Hi Bali,

      Best regards
      The Rhino Africa team
