Make My Monday: Listener in desperate need for groceries

Belinda Carlson sent us a message pleading with us for some groceries to get her through the month.

HERE IS HER MESSAGE: 

"Make My Monday: Dit is so moeilik om julle dit te vra, maar ek weet nie wat ek gaan maak tot 'payday' toe nie. Ons het niks in die huis om te eet nie. So ek wil vra vir net 'n R100,00 tot 'payday' asb. Net vir brood en iets om op die brood te sit. Ek sal nie melk kan koop nie, want ons her nie eers koffie nie. Ek is nie bekommerd oor dit nie - ek sal water drink. Dit is so moeilik om julle dit te vra." 

She said she needed a few things to get through the month. They are three people in the family - Belinda, her husband and their 7-year-old daughter, Skyler.

Belinda works in the insurance industry. She is a financial advisor at CIB in Edenvale.

Her husband, Vincent works for Fidelity Security. He does the polygraphs on security guards.

They only have about R2000’s groceries a month but she can’t afford it. Her husband pays for everything and she is responsible for the groceries. But she can’t afford.

WHAT SHE IS GETTING:

Pick ‘n Pay is right outside her house right now with groceries of R3000. The hamper consists of basic necessities that will get them through the month.

AND THERE IS MORE!

Pick ‘n Pay also agreed to give Belinda and her family a voucher of R2500 for the next month. This will allow the family to go and buy grocery items that they might need.
