This is definitely keeping things interesting and us on our toe’s as we had the April trip all planned out. Attie is still out of action at the moment but is doing well and we wish him the best. At this stage it looks like Hannes will go up to Zimbabwe the weekend to purchase the stock, pack and sort the boxes he will then come back to SA and switch the bakkie for the UD 90. He will then go back to Zimbabwe to do the round trip with the truck to make sure all our Golden Oldies get their boxes. Please if there is anyone who can get away for about 10 days from this weekend to help him, it would be absolutely awesome. Then he could drive the truck and they could go up in the bakkie and once the packing is done go on a trip with Hannes around Zims to deliver the boxes. I would go however my mom is going in for 2 eye ops shortly for Cataracts and I can’t get away. Please this is someone’s chance to be a lifesaver.
Although we have received support from a lot of our regular donors and a few once off donations we are still well short of the funds required. I apologize for putting this in here but our Golden Oldies seriously need our help and the first 4months this year we have had a record low of funds coming in. To all our regular monthly supporters and once off donors THANK YOU, you are absolute STARS. We have about 1600 Golden Oldies that depend on us for the Bi-Monthly food parcels. Please guys I know times are beyond tough (Living through this first hand) but if everyone made a small donation it will make a HUGE difference. LETS BE THE DIFFERENCE IN SOMEONES LIFE TODAY
We are an officially registered Non-Profit Organization and Section 21A in South Africa and are registered with SARS as a Public Benefit Organization in terms of section 18A the Income Tax Act (Which means all donations are issued with a Tax Certificate and can be claimed back)
I am currently busy with the past years tax certificates for our South African donors.
Please Note for a Tax Certificate I require the following:
- Physical Address
- Contact Number
- If Business – Registered Name, Comp Number
- Private – Initials and correct Surname
Thank you so much for helping us support our “Golden Oldies” during these very difficult times. Your support is invaluable to us and we at the ZPSF would never be able to sustain our regular supply of relief parcels if it were not for donations such as yours. You our Donors ensure our wheels keep turning, you are all truly amazing. THANK YOU and God Bless.
The 3
most important pillars of our cause:
UNIQUENESS – being one of a kind and knowing that the ZPSF is driven by good
will and very passionate members.
TRANSPARENCY – enforcing the rule that all members must be fully informed
before taking part in this noble venture.
ACCOUNTABILITY – Having a traceable paper trail for every cent handled, and
regular revues conducted.
Kind Regards
