Nkanini Orange IQ provides healthy meal to the community of Nkanini

We closed off with Nonkululeko Magadla - Founder of Nkanini Orange (IQ). After spending three years in prison for drug trafficking Nonkululeko is giving back to her community through her first community project Nkanini Orange IQ – The Taste of Learning in Khayelitsha. This community nutrition and learning kitchen provides healthy food to the community of Nkanini. Her initiative was made possible through the collaborative efforts and support of A Reaching Hand, a NGO that supports committed and driven individuals who want to serve and empower their communties, Correctional Services WC, the University of South Africa (UNISA) and lastly, a NGO called The Soup Clinic that provides the ingredients to feed those in need of a nutritious meal. Nkanini Orange IQ is expected to serve nutritious meals at a cost of 50c three times a week, while rolling out informal learning and skills programmes for community members of different age groups, at least once a week to start with. For further information you can contact Nonkululeko on 083 735 6032.
