  1. A spoonful of sugar: how South Africa’s weigh-and-pay shops are tackling ‘poverty tax’ head on
    By Julie Bourdin

    Run by a social enterprise, the six shops operate from shipping containers across Johannesburg’s Alexandra township and sell food and household goods by weight in small, affordable amounts

    I’m sharing this again because I don’t know what else to do. 💔

    These are the clothes my children are wearing. They are torn, worn out, and we have no money to replace them.

    I’m trying to raise $100 for basic clothes for my six children. I will buy the cheapest things I can find—nothing fancy, just something clean and whole for them to wear.

    Please, if you can help with even $5, you would be helping a child replace torn clothes with something decent.

    I’m not asking for much. I’m just asking for a little dignity for my children. 🙏💔🇵🇸

  4. @treleanor While it's great to see attention on malnutrition in aged care, the root of the problem lies in the privatisation of the system. The focus on cost-cutting has led to seniors being treated like numbers, not people, and now we're turning to lupins, which feel more like livestock feed than proper nutrition. Real care means investing in quality meals and support for the elderly, not finding the cheapest solution. #malnutrition #agedcare #privatisation #elderlycare #qualitycare #costcutting #seniorhealth #nutritionmatters #lupins #dignityforall #healthoverprofit
