Santa Visits Haven of Rest

Santa Visits Haven of Rest

Christmas Magic at Haven of Rest

We could never have envisaged such generous support from our local community. What was suppose to be a simple Christmas Activation, meant to bring light and love to the residents of Haven of Rest in Tongaat, turned into a fabulous show of love and support from the local community.

There are no words to describe the gratitude we all feel for the kind donations from everyone. Firstly I would like to thank our main sponsor ID Realty and the Pebble Beach team, with their help were able to put together gift bags stuffed with all sorts of Christmas gifts for the 29 children that reside at the Haven of Rest.

Cash donations came from absolute strangers like Marysia Wisniewski, Chris and Bashni Maistry.

Cash donations also came from my friends Olivia Roels Sak, Christmas Fair Fund and Hugh Reimers.

I want to especially thank Pam Naidu from ID Realty for not just the cash donation but for all the work and outpouring of love, that went into putting this party together, the Pebble Beach team were instrumental in the success of this project.

A big heartfelt thanks goes to Dean Jooste from Cell C, who brought his gorgeous family and helped with the assembling of the bicycles and teaching the little ones how to ride a bike.

Thank you to our Father Christmas, Emil Unger and his magnificent wife Julia, you guys were such hard working, God sent angels.

And then thanks to everyone else who showed up on the day and gave from the heart, the joy and love we gave really made an impact on the residents at Haven of Rest and your efforts made a significant difference in their lives. Well done and thank you.
