Spread hope and courage and to put a Smile on the faces of Senior Citizens. Celebrate the lives of people from the Senior Citizens Club that lost their lives in the recent Covid 19 period.
On 15 February 2022 meals and other activities were provided to 36 Senior Citizens the most valuable members of our community in Bonteheuwel, Cape Town, Western Cape.
The Senior Citizens were positively overwhelmed and each one were also given a long stem red rose. They were Smiling with tears of joy rolling down their tender cheeks. Ruweida, Art of Living Teacher and volunteer rendition of three songs touched the hearts of the Senior Citizens. The Senior Citizens also danced to what is called the famous line dance. The theme song for the afternoon was Smile.
In addition to Ruweidaji entertaining, we had also arranged for a local singer and guitarist to treat the Senior Citizens. Our guest speaker charged the audience with emotions of love, faith, and hope.
