For an unforgettable night, the HSFA’s Vonke Hall was transformed into an elegant fine dining restaurant, where the HSFA hosted our bi-annual fundraising and networking dinner. Esteemed members of our Somerset community gathered to support and raise awareness for the HSFA, our mission, our Section 18A status, and the vital role that bequests and donations from the community play in sustaining our NPO. Among our guests were
Standard Bank – South Africa,
Village Collective,
Dewvest, Fontijn, Dr Sharon Truter Neuropsychology, Imibala Trust, Matthee Prokureurs, Classic Bathrooms,
Laminin Paints Western Cape, and
Frontline Electrical. It was a wonderful opportunity to connect with new partners and thank those who have been our donor supporters in the past.

Our residents do like to keep busy. An example of someone who makes a massive effort to contribute her skill and time is our Eve Klix from HSFA’s Silver Oaks Lodge. Her green fingers in the unit’s veggie gardens have produced healthy bell peppers and heirloom tomatoes! Thank you, Eve. #greenfingers #SilverOaksLodge #activeaging
