Helping Angels visited the pensioners in Reyger Court in
Brooklyn to hand out food parcels to 50 needy pensioners
that are really struggling to survive.

These pensioners get R1010 in pension, with their Communicare flat rentals starting
from R530 upwards, which leaves only about R400 or less for medical exp, food,
electricity, etc, so they are really struggling!

The day was filled with lots of tears and joy, helping these poor
forgotten residents of Reyger Court brought much happiness to our
hearts.
Just look at this smile from uncle Paul… even though he didn’t have
any shoes!!
