Hi
Thank you for supporting me in raising funds for Little Eden!
In order to participate in the London Marathon on the 26th April 2009, I have to raise funds for a charity of my choice, and I have chosen Little Eden (see details on the left). And there is no running involved on your part :) All proceeds go to Little Eden.
People have been incredibly generous so far, a huge thank you to everyone, every little bit makes a difference. A bit thank you also to Claudia for all her help and patience.
To donate through the site, you just need to follow the instructions, if you would prefer to make a donation directly to the charity, please give me a shout.
Thanks a million for your support!

LITTLE EDEN Society |
LITTLE EDEN Society for the Care of Persons with Intellectual Disability, established in 1967, is certainly a very special place where we serve, through our work, children and adults who are 'angels'; people who need to be protected and cared for and most of all loved. LITTLE EDEN is the permanent home to 300 residents who have intellectual disability, ranging in age from 4 years to 58 years, the majority (229) of whom have been abandoned or come from indigent families who are unable to support them financially or otherwise. At LITTLE EDEN we aim to develop our residents to their full potential and to encourage the community to recognise that each such person is a whole and complete person created by God with a mind, a body, a spirit and a soul ...however disabled. Statistically, the average age of our residents is 20 years, but the level of mental functioning is that of a one year old and younger. Some are HIV positive or have AIDS. Dealing with the terminally ill or dying forms part of the work carried out at LITTLE EDEN. Most of our residents stay with us until they die. Some residents have been with us for over 40 years and for many, LITTLE EDEN is the only home they will ever know. The Society consists of 2 Homes: one in Edenvale and the other on a smallholding in Bapsfontein, Elvira Rota Village. Two hundred and forty nine (249) individuals have employment at LITTLE EDEN. |
