School is closed.
Families are huddled together in small rooms.
Government lock down means very few are able to feed themselves or their families.
No-one has money for soap.
Mustard Seed Project is providing food and soap for these families.
We also need to pay the salaries of our staff

This year Mustard Seed Project is 11 years old! We have built the ground floor of our own school and are in the process of building six classrooms on the upper storey of our new building to accommodate all the children in the same place, saving us £5,000 per year in rent.
