The winners of the third annual Knysna Sanlam Awards were announced last night, at a gala event in South Africa. The e’Pap Children’s Feeding Project, whom we are proud to support, won the Local Charity and NPO Award. This is well deserved recognition of their work; the project now feeds children in need in 100 schools. Congratulations to Shelley Godsell, her team and the many dedicated volunteers who distribute and serve the e’Pap.
