WHEELCHAIR DONATION REQUEST
Friends Day Centre is urgently looking for an adult-sized wheelchair for a much-loved member of the FDC Family. The wheelchair does not need to be anything fancy but does need to be in a reasonable condition with functional footplates. If you have one that you no longer need and would be willing to donate, we would be incredibly grateful. As he is in no financial position to purchase one, this donated chair would make a HUGE difference to his quality of life. Please let us have some pictures to check for suitability.

๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’™ OVERWHELMED WITH GRATITUDE! A HUGE THANK YOU TO 3C METAL BELMET! ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’š

Sometimes, words simply arenโ€™t enough to express how grateful we are! ๐Ÿฅน

Friends Day Centre is truly overwhelmed by the incredible generosity of 3C Metal Belmet, who selected us as one of the organisations to support this year through their annual fundraising auction!

Every year, 3C Metal Belmet hosts an auction to raise funds and support organisations in need. We are incredibly honoured and fortunate to have been chosen as one of this yearโ€™s beneficiaries. ๐Ÿ’š

The donation was so substantial that we couldnโ€™t even fit everything into our photographs, with many items still in boxes! ๐Ÿ“ฆ From essential supplies, cleaning products and toiletries to food, educational resources, toys, appliances and so much more, the sheer size of this donation has left us truly humbled.

These items will help support the daily needs of our centre and the children and adults with severe to profound intellectual and physical disabilities who attend Friends Day Centre.

A special thank you to Anne-Mari van der Westhuizen, Operations Coordinator, for arranging this amazing donation and helping make it possible.

To everyone who donated and contributed to the annual auction, thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Your generosity will make a meaningful difference in the lives of our learners.

From our learners, staff and the entire Friends Day Centre family, thank you for choosing us, for giving so generously and for reminding us of the incredible impact we can make when we come together. ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’™

We are truly grateful! ๐ŸŒŸ
