Hotspots: Cape Town
Add to Lightbox DownloadA young boy tries to hold his mask in place as he prays, in Parkwood, Cape Town, South Africa, on Sunday, May 31, 2020. The joint prayer in Afrikaans opened a special chicken lunch served by the Parkwood Community Upliftment (PCU) project. The youth organization, which normally feeds children as part of an after-school care program, has been feeding children, the elderly, and many other hungry people, in this poverty-stricken area in the Cape Flats since lockdown started more than two months ago. As the nation moves down to Level 3, on June 1st, CPU founder Max Amansure says the organization will continue to feed people. Often it's "only" bread as the organization doesn't have any regular funding. However, as the area has been hard hit by COVID-19, Amansure says he wishes Parkwood could have remained on Level 5 Lockdown. PHOTO: EVA-LOTTA JANSSON
