The HSFA accommodates and cares for elderly residents in the Helderberg, some of whom have little or no financial support. For this we are doing a fundraiser - a Golf Day on the 7th October at Strand Golf Club. Please support the event through financial donations, prize sponsorships, or you can book a 4-ball / individual entry. To book a 4 Ball team / individual entry email Japie Olivier [email protected] or to be a sponsor please email Helen Lee [email protected]

We had a fabulous time at the beautiful at Clemence with all the wonderful staff and residents.

Today I painted a new residents nails at work and as we were going over colors, she mentioned she wanted clear. The only thought that came to my mind was "CLEAR?! That's no fun." I asked her why she wanted clear and she said, "My hands are ugly, I don't want to draw attention to them." I then carefully responded with, "Your hands tell the story of your life. They tell the story of love, of care and adventure. These hands have touched and held things that most people can only wish to one day." And with that, she went with the color pink for her nails. Sometimes what we are so insecure with, others find beauty in. 💖 Words and photo Credit Brandalyn Mae Porter.
