ABOUT

The Association for the Aged (Tafta) Gala Dinner event will be held at the Tsogo Sun Elangeni Hotel on Friday, 25 October 2019. With just 300 seats on offer, this flagship fundraising event enables us to meet our fundraising target of R22 million per annum.

 

Programme Beneficiary: Tafta Home Based Care

 

This year, our fundraising efforts have specific focus on raising funds for Tafta’s Home Based Care, a win-win community outreach programme where younger members of the community, trained in the Tafta Care Practitioner programme, are given the opportunity to earn an income, in return for tending to the needs of elders requiring daily support.

 

Tafta’s Home Based Care programme has extended significantly into the eThekwini municipality; today we reach out to 190 elders, ensuring their basic right to dignity is met. But we realise the need to help more elders through this model of care is growing at a rapid pace.

 

Your financial contribution towards the Home Based Care Programme could assist in making a difference to an entire community, with younger carers being paid to care for their elders, thereby uplifting the socio-economic dynamic of many disadvantaged communities in the Durban region.
