Description
Today you will spend the day experiencing what it means to B Somebody with Love. This is an authentic and purely Positive Impact tour that has been specially designed for RY by a local favorite, Bukho. She is excited to take you on a journey of what her organisation ""B Somebody with Love"" does to create an impact and change in South Africa, tackling issues such as youth unemployment, homelessness and hunger.
We spend some time with the local farming community where you'll get your hands dirty and help the older farmers with their daily gardening activities. While at the farms, a delicious traditional South African lunch will be prepared by Bukho herself with the fresh produce from the farmers. We then will travel to ""Ladles of Love"" for the second half of the tour, where we will volunteer our time and help with their daily activities. These range from making sandwiches for the homeless to packaging food parcels that are distributed weekly to soup kitchens and homeless shelters around Cape Town.
