Danville Liggiehuis Brenda van der Merwe

Non-governmental organisation (NGO) Vintage Store Shop

Non profit. Provide foodparcels and gifts to underprivileged children, families and senior citizens. More info on top at info or www.danvilleliggiehuis.co.za For the past 21 years I have decorated my house and garden with over 120 000 Christmas lights and decorations. The lights are switched on from 1 December to 1 January from 19h00 to 23h00. From 6 December, Santa Claus is available for the children to talk to or receive letters. Read more It was these letter that made me decide to do something about the plight in our poverty-stricken community. These letters and request from children are for meat, school uniforms and even a teddy bear for mommy because she never receives a gift for Christmas. During the first year of my project, we handed out gifts and sweets to approximately 200 children. This was done out of our own pockets. The project initially only targeted our direct surroundings, but has grown substantially and therefor now includes a much larger area and still expanding even more to other locations. People are suffering. Last year we handed out more than 11500 sweets parcels and gifts to children, 950 food parcels to families in need and 450 food parcels, including a sweets hamper, to senior citizens. Today we are handing out food parcels, clothing and blankets throughout the year. It doesn’t matter where you live, some people just hide the suffering a little better than others. Our project is completely dependent on the public and we would not be able to touch the lives of these people without your support. This project may have been my brain child, but the public has raised it. I have been awarded 5 recognitions for this project: • Kolonnade/Erdekruik vrou van die jaar • ATKV, Afrikoon • Solidariteit, Ster in die gemeenskap • Rotary foundation, Paul Harris Fellow • Gauteng Provincial Government, Suksesvolle kersprojek. Artists such as Steve Hofmeyr, Jacques de Coning, Paul Buckby, Gerrie Pretorius, Freddie Nest, Tommy Oliver, Boe Boe van vetkoekpaleis, Matt Stern from 7de laan and many more have made guest appearances here, in support of the project, to draw attention to the public. We are not asking for money, but we do need gifts, sticky tape, wrapping paper, sweets. Cold drinks and a lot of non-perishable groceries to keep this caring project alive. We welcome second hand clothing, furniture, curtains, etc. to distribute amongst the less fortunate. Even second hand Christma Update description
