James Khoza, chairperson of Chefs with Compassion, said the day revolved around human rights.
“Today we are talking about the rights of every human being. Our gathering today is to make sure we make the people of South Africa aware that there are many people that go without food daily. In the spirit of Ubuntu, we need to share what we have to make sure we alleviate hunger.”
