ORIGINAL REQUEST:
Good morning,
My name is Antonette and I am from a baby house (Heneka Haven) in the East of Pretoria.
We are a home for disabled and dying orphan children and babies.
We take care of them and look after them the best way we can for as long as possible. We are part of the Doxa Deo Congregation and rely only on donations to keep our home running.
I was wondering if it would be possible at all to meet with someone from Jacaranda Good Morning Angels to discuss the possibility of help for our house?
Thank you,
Antonette Steyn
