2013 has been another successful year for ECYCC. We're very happy to have 11 children staying with us currently and the support of lots of people to do this. The home is now 4 and half years old since it took the Emmanuel name, and it continues to flourish, touched by the kindness of everyone who helps ECYCC in whatever way they best can. We would like to make special mention of people who we give our thanks to and wish a happy festive season:
For their support: Karen McEwan, Rhett Newton, Kobus van Straten, as well as Vicky and Gill for from Production Four13.
For their donations and sponsorship: Marna de Vos, Kevin Goddard, Mr. Cunningham, Agape Church, St Barnabas Anglican Church, Bertus Deysel from Auto Body Repairs, Spar Middelburg, and Tinus du Plessis.
The staff; Dolly, Martha, and Martie who are our hard-working carers, as well as Johanna our administrator who has recently successfully started a Pastoral Care course.
Our board members; including Alfie and Jaco, who has taken on the role of Treasurer this year.
Our kind-hearted volunteers who come to experience life with us; Alex and Sophia, both from Germany.
