Transcript of Tafta’s Initiative for the Festive Season
Tafta Trail Run Festive Cheer Campaign
Overview • Tafta is a registered non-profit organisation dedicated to
serving the needs of Durban's elderly residents
• We provide the following services:
• suitable accommodation in our 14 buildings, including frail care
• support services, such as Meals on Wheels and Home Based Care, to enable older persons to continue living in their own homes
• opportunities for social interaction, entertainment and activities through our
clubs and Lifestyle Centres
• All services are provided either free or at a nominal charge, and
we rely heavily on contributions from local businesses and
individuals
Have you ever felt lonely? So many elderly people know how this feels,
especially those who have lost all family ... and as the festive season approaches, it gets worse. Not because they envy the excited plans of people lucky enough to share the festive season with loved ones – but because it’s a stark reminder of their isolation.
That’s why the Festive Campaign that TAFTA hosts – with support from friends like you – are much more than the chance for elderly people to enjoy a delicious meal and a gift.
It’s a chance for them to enjoy companionship, love and a sense of belonging.
HOW YOU CAN GET INVOLVED:
Imagine if everyone in our community did just one small thing to make someone else happy – someone they don’t even know. We’d create a little bit of heaven on earth!
So why not lead the way right now by supporting our Tafta Trail Run and help us provide a little bit of happiness for the older people in our care?

Acknowledgement as a key supporter of Tafta’s Festive
Cheer Campaign – December 2016
The power of a simple gift!
Something so modest may not seem like much to most people – but to elderly
people who can barely recall the last time they felt wanted and appreciated – it
means the world!

and we will pack a box on your behalf
Items that you can pack in your box: Soap, Toothpaste, Toothbrush, Deodorant, Lotion, Vaseline, Disposable Razors, Biscuits, Teabags, Crossword puzzle book , Adult

A society that does not value its older people denies its roots and endangers its future.
Let us strive to enhance their capacity to support themselves for as long as possible and, when they cannot do so anymore, to care for them.
