Funds raised - Motor Neurone Disease

Fundraising Luncheon : 12 May 2015

The Mission Statement of our Association is:  

“To provide and promote the best possible support for people living with Motor Neurone Disease, their families and carers and to raise public awareness”

and to accomplish this, funds are in on-going need.   Although we are not able assist our patients financially, we provide equipment such as Bi-Pap machines [which facilitates breathing] wheelchairs, walkers, commodes, raised toilet seats, and other aids, to assist them with their day to day activities and give them some quality of life.   Our Consultants visit patients, counsel families and carers and arrange monthly support groups where patients and carers can interact.

So a big thank you to Sandy Bailey for organizing the lunch at Buitenverwachting, Philippa Jolly for the suggestion, to the members and guests of “The Thursday Club”,  to each and everyone who attended and contributed in any way to make the donation of R5,255  (Five thousand two hundred and fifty five Rand) possible.   This donation and your generous support is very much appreciated and will greatly assist us in our aim.

Caring makes a difference.
