Twizza serving valued customers and fellow South Africans on Mandela Day

28 July 2020 by Alan

MyPR: Twizza serving valued customers and fellow South Africans on Mandela Day:

The world’s most loved statesman, Nelson Mandela, inaugurated Nelson Mandela International Day in 2009 as a response to what he saw as a global crisis of poverty and inequality; it is a day that is all about getting out and into communities, doing hard work and engaging with people, and Proudly South African company, Twizza has risen to the challenge.

The year, the Covid-19 pandemic brutally exposed the deep inequality in most societies and is thrusting millions more around the world into poverty.

Here in South Africa, many people are starving. Emergency relief should be a priority for all South Africans, but we need to be thinking about longer term needs too. Addressing this long-term food insecurity will require public policy changes, innovative thinking on how to support small-scale food producers, the development of more efficient access and delivery systems, and fostering a culture of home and school gardening. However, for now, small scale actions, can make big impacts on South Africans who are living from hand to mouth, and it is here that Twizza chose to make a difference.

“Last year we adopted five focus areas for the Mandela Day campaign: Shelter, Education, Food and Nutrition, Sanitation and Active Citizenry,” said Yase Godlo, Mandela Day Champion, Nelson Mandela Foundation.

“COVID-19 has heightened the significance of all these areas. For Mandela Day 2020 we asked people – in their organisations, their workplaces, their families and in their private capacities – to support in practical ways, big or small, a family facing challenges in these areas. For that one family it could mean the difference between coping and not coping in these winter months”

Twizza partnered with NOSH Food Rescue, renowned chefs from Johannesburg and the Thava Indian Restaurant in support of their Chefs with Compassion project for Mandela Day to serve a nourishing meal to 67 000 fellow South Africans.

Twizza supported this campaign as it connected us with our customers and communities across all walks of life! Twizza is focused on developing key relationships that serve and nurture the citizens of our country and used the opportunity to make Mandela Day 2020 a special one for many who are feeling the greatest impact of Covid -19 extended lockdown rules.

Twizza envisage more than just a crisis-response, but an ongoing and long-lasting relationship with NOSH Food Rescue, restaurants and chefs around SA to make a sizable dent in the terrible scourge that is food insecurity.

#ActionAgainstPoverty. Take Action. Inspire Change. Make Every Day A Mandela Day.

Museum Africa: The Memory of the Market

Long before it was a sanctuary for artifacts, this building was the Johannesburg Municipal Fruit and Vegetable Market, completed in 1913. At the time, it was an architectural marvel of the industrial age, featuring a massive, vaulted roof supported by reinforced concrete and steel—a design intended to keep the produce cool in the biting Highveld sun. The site was chosen for its proximity to the railway lines, allowing fresh goods from across Southern Africa to be funneled directly into the heart of the city. For decades, it was a place of frantic, multi-racial commerce where the air was thick with the smell of citrus and the shouts of auctioneers. In 1994—the same year South Africa held its first democratic elections—the market was transformed into Museum Africa, symbolically turning a site of physical sustenance into one of intellectual and historical nourishment.
