Gauteng, South Africa – On Thursday, 15 November Forever Resorts South Africa hosted their annual Charity Golf Day, this year in aid of the Foundation for Children with Hearing Loss in SA at Blue Valley Golf and Country Estate.   

The Foundation aims to improve the quality of life for people with hearing loss, creating a sustainable future for people with hearing loss, inspire, educate, develop and empower an entire community, create fresh perspectives and innovative solutions, promote social welfare, encourage poverty alleviation and generate a lasting change.  

The Forever Golf Day raised a total of R189 093.01 and the funds were paid over directly to the foundation to help three children (Haley Smit (4 years), Ronisha Malander (4 years) and Mulweli Makhuva (9 years)) with funds to pay for their cochlear implants. Mulweli underwent his operation on Monday, 19 November 2018 and will now be going through the process of slowly training his brain to hear again as he lost his hearing due to illness some years ago.  

“On behalf of Forever Resorts we would like to thank our wonderful sponsors who participated in our annual Golf Day, without you, your passion and your selfless generosity this would not have been possible.

The Malabar Home for the Aged received a cheque of R60 000 at the PE Algoa Cares Charity Golf Day cheque handover.

Dave Tiltmann, the MD of Algoa FM handed the cheque to the chairman of Malabar Home for the Aged, Mogan Segadavan, who accepted it on behalf of the home.

The handover happened at the Malabar Home for the Aged on Tuesday 29 August.

“This money will be used to continue the renovations of the the home, so we can accommodate the waiting list of retirees who would like to live here,” says Segadavan.

“I’d like to thank Algoa FM on behalf of the home. Thanks to the the efforts of your golf day, a few more are able to call this place home.”

Renovations to the home can now be completed, to better utilize certain areas of the home, so additional residents can be accommodated.

Rising Sun Daycare in Duncan Village has been selected as the beneficiary for this year’s Algoa Cares Charity Golf Day in East London.

The children of Duncan Village are often left home alone and unattended while their parent’s are either at work or searching for work.

Witnessing the children playing in a nearby dump, Nozie Mswi took the initiative to start a daycare facility.

Rising Sun Daycare first opened its doors to children between the ages of 1-5 years old in January 2013.

“The daycare that is attended by at least 35 to 40 children, receives no financial assistance from either the public or the private sector,” says Taralyn Mclean, who volunteers her PR services to the home.

“Parents pay a small fee and that money is used to give each child breakfast and lunch,” says Nozie Mswi, the owner of Rising Sun Daycare.

“Some of the parents can’t always pay, but their children are always welcome and we make do with what we have.”

“After visiting Rising Sun Daycare, we realised that there is a real need for assistance and we could not have found a more deserving beneficiary,” says Dohné Damons, PR and CSI Manager at Algoa FM.

This year’s Algoa Cares Charity Golf Day, East London is themed, Music through the Ages.

The day of fun and golf will happen on the 8th of September.

“We encourage all sponsors to theme their designated areas accordingly,” says Ndileka Geysman, Marketing Executive at Algoa FM.

“We’re looking for a music hall of fame, a rock n roll theme and even the suaveness of a 90’s boy band. So be creative!”
