Have a look at some of our Needs. See where your support can help us best.

Our Top Priorities

CONTAINER FOR STORAGE

In light of our storage needs, we seek secure accommodations for various items, notably garden implements and furniture. The current Wendy House is deteriorating, plagued by leaks and a rodent infestation. Moreover, the impending conversion of the present storeroom into a toilet will heighten our storage requirements.

  • CARPORT covers
  • CASH to cover monthly R25,000 shortfall
  • INVERTERS Electricity backup system during power outages
  • SHELVING & INSTALLATION FOR OUR EXPANDING BOOK PROJECT
  • TWIRLY DRYERS (3) – Replace existing lines to increase space for Events Garden
  • CONTAINER FOR STORAGE. Secure storage is required for, amongst others, our garden implements and
    garden furniture. The existing Wendy House is falling apart with leakages and an infestation of rodents.
    Storage needs have increased due to the storeroom being converted into a toilet and all residents’ rooms are
    occupied
  • DAMAGED WALLS IN STAFF QUARTERS. Repairs are becoming increasingly necessary as situation
    worsens

Your attention to these requirements is greatly appreciated as we strive to enhance the safety and functionality of our premises.
