Check out the Raising Hope (RHSA) events from Feb 23 to Dec 23. There are several fulfilling ways to either participate or volunteer.
Here is a run through what you can expect behind each RHSA event:
Rise events: Rise days are open to families with children with disabilities from ages 5 to 35. Check out the events calendar for information about the location of these events as we rotate.
We are partnering with Cedarhill Family Church in Durbanville to host Sunday services with Rise (April 16; August 13; October 15). Cedarhill is a disability-inclusive church and these services are for an intergenerational emphasis on including persons with disabilities in all areas of ministry. A fun family event follows each service.
This year, we are launching RISE Next, a social for teens and young adults with disabilities.
Join us at Golf Academy: Assisted golf is a fun sport no matter what your ability. Buddy up with a golfer on the green lawns of Durbanville Golf Club.
Cape Town Cycle Tour: Brett and David are taking on their 9th Cape Town Cycle Tour on the 12 March. As they ride the 109km route they would like your support in raising funds to assist with providing food hampers to families impacted by disabilities. Each hamper costs R450. David is challenging you to donate in amounts with a 9 in it – Come support him and make a difference in the lives of others. See the link:

Parent Connect: Supporting parents of children with disabilities and adult-dependants. Don’t do life alone – we get together and share information.
Hampers of Hope: Donations of non-perishables are collected for children with disabilities in need. Are you good at getting donations? Please help! We do 2 food runs a year to assist families over the school holidays.
