Seson after Season, Year after Year

There is a group of volunteers that Sally has managed to muster around her, who made much effort to source for yarn, go buy them, or encourage people to donate them,   and then organise a series of knitting sessions so that by year-end, there will be a a few hundred of freshly knitted beanies, ready to be shipped out to areas where the wintry weather affects those who live, where the only heating available is to sit around an open fire.

Sally has been doing this since 2014, when a call to knit for the needy was made at an International meeting in Perth. Every year, Sally , a busy mother of six, working full time , volunteers at various organisations and sits in many committees, commits herself to this project once again, despite her very busy schedule.

Without fail she will be off to an early start, sometime around now, working on her usual routine... and blessing many lives in the past years.

It is because of volunteers like her, and many other unsung heros and heroines, that enable our Foundation for Life to continue providing for the needy especially duing rainy and cold seasons, who labour tirelessly and give sacrificially  for the sake of the less privileged.

Our Foundation would like to take this opportunity to thank all you donors for giving like you do, Season after Season, Year after Year!

 Feeling grateful and thankful.

Better Prepared Than Sorry

The principles that the Foundation for Life works on, is to be as ready as possible for any challenges that we may be faced. It may be that when we are overcome with heavy workload, the speed to which we respond to emergencies be slowed down, but if we have prepared for it, at least we are partly, if not totally ready for them.

Thus, although the rainy season nor the cold weather has yet to arrive, the Foundation for Life, has already been sounding out to volunteers and donors, for the need of materials, winter beanies or donations that will enable us to be prepared when disasters strike.

In the same tone, we would appeal to you our donors to assist us in our preparations, as we go about collecting yarns, beanies or monetory donations that will help us be prepared when the dire needs arise, in the event of an emergency. We will only be able to help victims, ONLY with your help.

We are happy to report that a few philanthropists have already responded, as can be seen in the yarns that were given and some beanies collect.

Whenever we see happy and warmed faces of our reciepients, especially needy children, we are filled with satisfaction, knowing that we have helped protect these little ones from illnesses relating to cold weather.

At the same time, we have had the opportunity to thank Madam A (who requested not to be named) when our staff visited her at her home. She had been a faithful knitter of our beanies, till she fell too ill to do so.... we are indeed so grateful and appreciative of her and all donors who in one way or another, extended a helping hand.

We look forward to your kind and generous response, as we move forward in preparation, because it is always Better to be Prepared then Sorry that we were negligient.

Our Foundation sincerely thanks ALL for your generosity and availability, and your partnership all these years.

Any feedback or comment to enable us to be more effective in our outreach is welcomed.

Best regards
