It could have been me, or you, or your loved one now depending on support: donations, charity, fundraisers and volunteers to help with wishlist items or skills - Phyllis Robertson Home for disabled adults is a worthy cause to get involved with!
As a privately-funded non-profit organisation (NPO), we receive no subsidies from any statutory body and rely fully on residence fees and donations.
We do what we can in terms of holding fundraisers, selling our charity crafts and vetting families' ability to afford the residency fees. Still, we have several residents where the families experience financial distress (or residents become orphaned) and for that reason, our tariffs are below the average of similar privately funded facilities. Our budget is very finely tuned and devoid of any luxury items with no margin for error.
As the custodians of these special souls, we provide entertainment, comfort and enrichment way beyond the minimum care required. Hence we are working hard to enlist the assistance of the public at large, philanthropic organisations and companies with a budget for social development, to consider us for any donation, big, small, in goods or in kind.
Get to know us, give & feel your heart overflow with love & purpose.
DONATE OR VOLUNTEER
Whether you can bless us with a monetary donation or something on our Wish-list, or volunteer (see below) your skills and talent, or assist at fund-raisers and market days, any support will be so very welcome. Come feel the wonderful vibe of making a difference as you journey with us!
