"Run for Cover" sleeping bag Project

Are you interested in sponsoring an urban survival sleeping bag for a homeless person? The Rotary Club of Kimberley South is partnering with a new charity in Cape Town to manufacture waterproof and highly insulated sleeping bags from recycled plastics, specifically for the homeless. 
The bags cost R150 rand each. You can make your donation straight into our Rotary Club’s projects bank account, using the reference “Run for Cover” and we will do the rest – with the Rotary guarantee that ever rand raised will go to the specified project. We've called the project "Run for Cover" because we will host a fun run with a donation of non-perishable food an as entry fee.

Yonder Frail Care Centre Project (2013)

Yonder is a centre for adults with an intellectual disability. Many of the people who live there are without any support system, except for Yonder. Their families either leave them there or the parents and siblings die and Yonder become their “family”. Because the inhabitants are intellectually impaired, but physically there is often nothing wrong with them, they can become quite old, and outlive their parents and siblings. The eldest person living there at the moment is 83 years old, with the mean age 46 years. Read more

St Theresa's Hospice Project

This is a legacy project of the Rotary Club of Kimberley South, which established the original Kimberley hospice in 1989.

Today it employs over 40 staff. In 1996 the residential facility (also known as St Theresa’s Hospice) opened at its present site in Dutoitspan Road. Mission: “To promote quality in life, dignity in death and support in bereavement to all living with a life limiting disease.” Read more
