Personal message

My buddies for this year’s cycle tour are Ashwill and Jade. This sibling pair came to Home of Hope in 2019 after spending most of their life in a hospital for chronically ill children.

While the siblings suffer from Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder due to prenatal alcohol exposure and other chronic illnesses, they were healthy enough to leave the hospital early on but had nowhere to go.

Home of Hope welcomed the siblings, even though their physical and intellectual disabilities required almost 24/h Care. Ashwill and Jade couldn’t believe what life outside of a hospital was like and marvelled at having their cupboard and set of bedding for the first time.

To keep Ashwill and Jade flourishing at Home of Hope, they need our help. I aim to raise R12 000 for the cycle tour to cover some of the immediate needs of Ashwill and Jade.

The Rohloff Group has donated the offline donation of R7,633
