Elim Home Legacy Project - Be Part of the Initiative

Elim Home is running a Legacy Project to coincide with the birthday celebrations. Your contribution towards the project can make a difference in the lives of the home’s residents.

Staff at the home are covering a wall panel with tiles, and each tile represents a donation from a sponsor.

There are three donation categories:

• Small - R60 to R100
• Medium - R100 to R1,000
• Large - R1,000+

If you want to contribute to Elim Home’s Legacy Project, you can find the donation form here.

Thank you for helping us care for those who need protection!
