We Are Steaming Ahead

The Table at the Long Beach Mall prooved to be a great success ,not only financially but also as a means of promoting awareness of our aims to our immediate community.
It also afforded to members and supporters of the Trust to experience fellowship on the road to our first goal-the building and supporting a foster home for orphaned and vulnerable children in Masiphumelele.
We are greatful to Growthpoint,the mangers of The Long Beach Mall for allowing us to
have this week in order to raise funds for our cause at no charge to us .Thanks to Allana Lochner,the Marketing Manager!We are also greatful to our Vice-Chairperson Monika ,who has excelled herself in her organising ability.!Thanks to Liz Hardman who started it all.
We raised roughly R15000 selling calenders,cards,homemade blankets,cookies,toys,bric a brac,flowers and raffle tickets for a 32" LCD TV the draw being the 16 December 2009.Well done guys!!!We hope that the remaining 500 beautiful calenders of our part of the peninsula will sell before they reach the end of their 'Sell By Date' early next year. Anybody who has a good idea phone me. 021 7865487.
All our Trustees and members have been dedicating their time,expenses and donations to our aims- Thank You. We are hopng to have enough funds to start building by the end of 2010 ,God willing. Remember the Kids we are doing it for.
