Nurture the elderly with goodness!

What We Do

The main aim of Guardian Angels is to impart love and companionship to the elderly located in their own residential homes.

Our volunteers visit one or two elderly persons each week. Later the volunteer can assist by transporting the elderly to town for shopping errands or a doctor’s appointment.

We also enjoy spoiling the elderly on certain days like Mothers / Fathers day and Christmas. The Nelspruit community is wonderful in offering us venue’s and assisting with the catering.

Should any of our elderly have a desperate need for an item / a necessity – we will purchase it out of our funds or find a donor i.e. linen, clothing etc.

Why support Guardian Angels

Everyone will get old one day and we feel that in a lot of our societies the elderly are rejected and neglected. To be a Guardian Angel volunteer means that you bring some sunshine and love into their lives, where perhaps there was nothing before. We ask you to support our organization in showing the elderly that they are still worth our time, after all they did help us get to where we are today.

Treat all equal with love and smiles...

Elderly Day Centre

The Elderly Day Centre was opened in Daantjie on 17th April 2012. The purpose of the day centre is to give the elderly of the local area a place to spend their day in a safe and loving environment.

Surrounded by our registered volunteers and thanks to Operation Hunger our elderly receive a wholesome lunch (Monday to Friday) and can also enjoy the comfortable environment of the centre. A recreation plan is in place to keep them busy in the mornings offering things to do – from making crafts to working in the garden.

The centre is managed by a committee of 5 volunteers. Helen Mbuyane Ndinisa has been a volunteer of Guardian Angels for over 2 years and is the Centre Manager. Helen has monthly meetings with Head Office (Nelspruit) as well as with her own committee and volunteers.

Please contact us should you wish to know more information about the Elderly Day Centre.
