Fred and Martie’s Soup Kitchen

Wasanga and Yolindie engage in a conversation about Fred and Martie's soup kitchen and its operations. Yolindie emphasizes that the initiative creates a sense of safety and value for the individuals they assist, as they serve the community with respect and dignity. She proceeds to recount how her parents, Fred and Martie Hughes, initiated the outreach over 43 years ago. They entrusted the legacy to their children, Riaan and Yolindie Oberholzer, who have proven to be exceptionally capable of carrying it forward. Starting 43 years ago, they began feeding children from a table on the sidewalk in front of their home. Yolindie underscores that coexistence hinges on kindness and empathy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
