New Arrival
Early on in the year we welcomed a gorgeous little girl who turned a year old just days after she arrived. She was dedicated at church on her birthday. PHOTOS Baby D being dedicated to our Lord and Master.


Get-Away
Lynne & Sonia are extremely grateful to Kurt and Janine Smith for affording us the opportunity to take 4 days off to relax at Champagne Valley. We really had a wonderful, fun-filled and relaxing time away. PHOTOS Nanny at the Nelson Mandela Capture Site near Howick.

Holiday at Home
At the end of December Sonia’s sister, Sylvia and her friend Betty came for a visit from Brakpan. We took a little time away from Hope House to take the ladies to various places of interest in and around Durban, so we like holiday-makers in our home town. PHOTOS Some photos of the ladies having fun.


Christmas at Hope House
A HUGE thank you to all the wonderful volunteers and donors who gave our little ones Christmas gifts. Here are some of them enjoying opening their presents and playing with the paper.
Fund Raising Dinner
Kim Pretorius hosted a dinner evening at her home where she invited 28 couples. Instead of paying for their meal, they were invited to make donations to Hope House and the grand sum of R6700 was raised. Thank you so much to all the friends who were so generous.


Fund Raiser
The Simply Models modelling school put on a Mr & Miss Dream Teen Modelling competition at Benjamin Pine Primary School to help raise funds for Hope House. R5000 was raised and lots of various items were also received. Many, many thanks for a lovely show and your generosity.
