Robin Hood celebrates month of love
Robin Hood Foundation recently visited the Ntshongweni elderly daycare where gogos received lots of goodies and knitted items.
EACH February, the Robin Hood Foundation hosts a variety of community visits as part of its ‘Month of Love’ campaign to spread love to the young and old through its various outreach projects.
The first of the visits was to bless 40 gogos and mkhulu’s, highlighted by the Christian Social Services (CSS), at Siyaphumula Elderly Daycare in rural Ntshongweni last week.
The elderly attend this daycare for companionship, exercise, porridge and a hot meal each day as well as sewing and crafts which they then sell to raise extra funds for their meals.

“Imagine their joy when each granny was unexpectedly gifted with a care package made by the ‘Knitting with Love’ group. The bag was filled with knitted blankets, beanies, bed socks, toiletries and treats,” said Robin Hood Foundation coordinator, Kim Griffith-Jones.
