Heart and Stroke Foundation

In the studio today we had Heart and Stroke Foundation South Africa’s Kholeka Bukani, who is the winner of the first Heart hero award. The awards ceremony will take place on 23 October 2007.

Bukani runs a project called Sow-a-Seed. The project teaches gardening skills and basic nutrition to members of poor communities (be they parents, teachers or volunteers) in order to provide healthy food for a dozen childcare centers.

Heart and Stroke Foundation dieticians consult with care givers to create meals that are nutritious and within budget. For many children the meal they receive at daycare is the only meal of the day.
