Widows And The Elderly
The aim of this initiative is to provide help to older people. This is a report of one of the projects:
We visited the Mamelodi Old Age Centre. We were cleaning and disinfecting the facility. Then we washed the feet of the elderly with hygiene soap. They loved the foot massage with much praying and worshipping with them. We bought them disinfecting detergents and wool for crocheting project. One had already started with crocheting a pillow cover. They love to stay busy.

GFWE Mobile Eye Clinic
Vision & eye health problems children may have, are identified and addressed early. Proper eye evaluation will help increase concentration & efficiency in the learning environment.
The central aim of this initiative is to provide primary eye care. This will include the provision of spectacles where necessary. This care will be taken to South African children in disadvantaged areas who would not ordinarily have access or funds to such care. The proposed plan includes visiting schools in disadvantaged communities to assess their visual needs.
A mobile clinic and trained optometrist will be used for this purpose. Thank you to our sponsors that are making this project a reality.
How you can help
A project of this magnitude requires major sponsorships. We would love to have a fleet of vehicles on the road. There is a vast need in our country. We take our sight for granted, but many are not that lucky.
Contact us if this project is close to your heart. Send your proposal to info@gfwe.co.za to become involved.

Malawi Educate A Child
“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world” – Former President Nelson Mandela
In recognition of this truth, GFWE South Africa has partnered with GFWE Malawi to sponsor the education of 100 Malawian children per annum. It takes a mere R200 (US$15) per child, per annum (the cost of a fast food meal) to do so. GFWE invites other GFWE chapters, other networks and the general public to join hands with us in this educational initiative.
