The phenomenal women of Independent Living (both staff and residents) kindly donated gifts to those living in our HSFA Frail Care (some on subsidies and/or no family support). Woman’s month ended with a fun tea at Vonke House with some guest speakers!
On Woman’s day earlier in the month both the Assisted Living and Frail Care units enjoyed a delicious lunch prepared by GERATEC to be reminded of just special women are! Thank you all!
The residents and staff of the HSFA have been doing their 67 minutes making Jars of Hope (nutritious soup mixes) for the less fortunate, and have been busy setting up decorations for Mandela Day lunches at selected units. Thank you all for giving back! YOU can give something back by supporting the HSFA on our donation page www.hsfa.org.za/shop
What festive treats the HSFA Garden Village residents received! The caring organisation Senior Santa Shoebox has been collecting donated gifts for months to hand out to some of the units of the HSFA.

Joshua Buchweitz, a Grade 7 scholar from Beaumont Primary School , showed how a simple act of kindness can go a long way. Joshua used his own savings and raised money from friends, neighbours and family to purchase a generous hamper of toiletries and treats for the residents (those who do not have family support) of the Support Center of the HSFA. When asked why he chose the HSFA as his retirement group as his beneficiary, he explained that his lovely granny Elana Kriedemann who recently retired from at the HSFA, told him that the HSFA is a special place, and she also explained that some residents needed some extra support and that they depend on the community for help. Thank you Joshua for your thoughtfulness, kindness and leadership – you are a true gentlemen. Your lovely granny can certainly be proud of you.
