Nani,Dadi, Nana, Ouma, Ma, gogo, grandma… call her what you like but let’s face it… the love she radiates cannot be explained. Always quick to jump to the wishes of her children and grandchildren, grandmothers are there, willing to go that extra mile to put a smile on our faces and make sure everything’s okay.
Now in their old age it is our turn to see to the need of the elderly, not just in our families but in our communities. That’s where SANZAF comes in… with the ‘adopt a granny’ campaign.
The Adopt-A-Granny initiative is one of several offerings that form part of SANZAF’s Operation Winter Warmth Campaign. The initiative not only aims to satisfy the material needs of the elderly by providing them with appropriate clothing for the winter months, but it also seeks to extend a hand of compassion and love to them, so that they can feel special!
The Adopt-A-Granny initiative hopes to achieve several things, including:
- Creating awareness of the needs and plight of the elderly
- Affording the grannies an opportunity to exercise choice by allowing them to choose what they need and want, which helps our elderly to regain their sense of dignity.
It is with the help and mercy of Allah Ta’ala and your generous contributions that SANZAF is able to bring smiles and warmth to the hearts of many grannies.
