Rand Aid spokesperson Cathy Grosvenor said, “The caring team from Rand Aid also brought along specially made iced chocolate muffins and biscuits, and shared these at tea with the 80 residents.”

The director of Jordan House, Pearlene Meadows, thanked the visitors for taking the time to come all the way out to Westbury to see them and for their generosity and kindness. She said that the donation will go a long way towards adding to the comfort and well-being of their residents.

She said that as an NGO which cares for the disadvantaged elderly and frail, there are many challenges that they face. She added, “But then angels like yourselves come along and supply us with exactly what we need at that moment. God bless you for caring for our family here at Jordan House.”
