The end of 2024 and the beginning of 2025 has been very busy, filled with giving and supporting many organisations within both the Jewish and broader community.
Fundraisers have included a peaceful morning practising yoga, a fun morning of bowls, 60-minute cutting-edge talks and jumble sales.
Our ECDs have been supported with food every month via the Mensch sponsorship.
Challah bakes and Hamantaschen bakes were held. Tons of children’s books were donated to school libraries all over the Western Cape. Backpacks filled with stationery were donated by Kesher Group and donors to our ECD project graduates.
In the spirit of Mitzvah Day, we hosted a Learn and Share for the staff of the ECDs we support.
A sukkah lunch was held for our group members and volunteers.
The Giving Bag donated personalised bags to children and families in Phoenix and Joe Slovo.
The Flower Group’s stunning gifts are available at Stonehaven year-round to purchase.
Our ECDs all hosted Christmas parties and Graduation ceremonies which included an outing for the pupils.
We hosted our Appreciation Party to express our gratitude to all our volunteers and partner organisations for their collaboration in 2024.
Thank you to everyone who dropped off or donated items for our projects.
Chag Sameach!
