Chairperson of the Board

Rev. Faan MyBurgh

in society with the appropriate help. I also express our appreciation to individuals,

organisations and, businesses, big and small, who have all generously supported

Amcare.

The last year has seen a continuation of exploring a new direction for Amcare and

taking steps to implement what is required with regards to this new direction. To this

effect we have had various in-depth consultative sessions on our own as well as with

visiting people to better discern and implement the way forward for Amcare. The

implementation of some of the outcomes of these various sessions will only be seen in

the future, for instance, the rebranding of the organisation which can only be fully

implemented the following year. However, let me highlight a few notable achievements.

Operationally we also saw the finalisation of the closing down of the clinic giving our

Social Work component much needed office space and thus strengthening their work

on the premises as well as out in the field. We are also grateful to the various

government departments for their invaluable assistance toward the work of Amcare.

We were the recipients of a Excellence Award in VEP services in Gauteng, awarded by

Department of Social Development.

We continued to work with Stepping Stone Hospice to enable them to grow in their

work as a hospice. We are grateful that we could yield a more positive result as far as

our finances are concerned for this period. We give thanks to the Finance Committee

for their sterling work. As far as the Board is concerned Board members took on

portfolios and the Board is now to a greater degree available as a resource for

managers.

As an organisation we continue to do what we believe our business is about, namely,

reaching the most vulnerable in society with the appropriate help. To this end we will

continue to grow our work, especially taking our presence and help into the

communities.

I thank you and may I express my sincere appreciation to the General Manager Marihet

for her work in keeping everything together and developing to where we want to be in

order to meet the challenges not just of today, but of those of the future.

God bless

Ecclesiastes 3 v 1

This verse has stood Amcare in its stead when

I took over the reins at the beginning of 2017.

The senior management, with the support of

the board of management, made strategic

decisions during April 2017, which re-directed

the course of the organization and

consolidated service rendering back to reaching the most vulnerable in our communities of

Alberton, Eden Park, Phola Park, Thokoza and Greenfields. Nonviable units, such as the sewing

centre and the Injabulo Clinic were closed during the first part of the financial year.

Despite this, we were still able to celebrate several wins. Amongst them was Amcare’s 15-year anniversary. During the

event we were able to track the impact that the organization has had on the lives of victims of domestic violence, adults

and children infected and affected by HIV/AIDS and the elderly over the course of 15 years.

We were able to move the whole social work component out of the previously

converted garages to the former Clinic premises. The building was re-named in a

blessings ceremony to Ethembeni (Place of Hope) and social work staff are able to

render professional services from proper offices and no longer do intake from

underneath a tree. We were also able to expand our services to people infected and

affected by HIV/AIDS to the communities of Greenfields and Thokoza. This move was

made possible by the generosity of Thokoza Methodist Church and the Zamokuhle

crèche in Greenfields, who gave us small pieces of ground to squat on. For this we

would like to sincerely thank them. Through the donation received from Komatsu,

we were able to erect small offices on these premises and purchase our first proper

bakkie, new, out of the box, with cash.

During this period, our skills training kitchen trained 26 unemployed ladies from our

communities in basic catering and cooking skills. A highlight for our kitchen was

when we were approached by Dukathole High School to train three of their boys in

the catering course.

A special commendation to the ground staff for their wholehearted support and

commitment to overhaul our grounds and take on new challenges.

I would like to highlight the old and celebrate new partnerships that Amcare was able

to garner over the past financial year, ranging from the Gauteng Department of Social

Development (both regional and provincial); to the myriad faith-based organizations

such as the Dare-to-Care Foundation, the Muslim Woman’s League, Ligstad and

Lewensentrum; to service organisations such as the Lions Club, Albion Cycling Club,

the Freemasons, Hogs, Doc Cycling club, Germiston Wheelers., to big corporations

such as Widney Transport Components, Joy Global Foundation, Bidvest/Blue Marine,

BP Pick ‘n Pay New Market, Checkers Mall of the South and Glenvista and individual

volunteers that donate their time and treasure to the organization. Our heartfelt

thanks go to these organizations, business and individuals who enable us to reach the

most vulnerable. A specific word of thanks also goes to the Alberton Methodist,

Brackenhurst Methodist and Eden Park Methodist Churches for their continued

support of the Love Buckets initiatives and hosting the organization and its initiatives

on their premises.

Lastly, I would like to thank each member of the staff, who took up the gauntlet with

me to transform and re-direct the path of the organization to ultimately reach the

most vulnerable in our society through professional social work services and

enhancing skills development initiatives.

For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven

Each course is adjusted to equip the learners will the basicskills so that they can leave knowing that they able to implement whatthey have learnt. The learners who goes through the course, reportedlyhave been able to generate an income for their households.

30-million people live below the national poverty line of R992 per month

At national level, the vast majority of employed youth

have either semi-skilled (53.1% in 2015) or low-skilled

Thank you Amcare for the support.

I now know that, I Susan Swart and my children Lucas, Jayden,

Chad and the other child Armand have rights and we will no

longer be abused, neglected, thrown around or trampled

because we know who we are and what we want to be in life.

And that no one can tell us otherwise.

I have learned that if I am in need to ask for help I must not be

afraid to tell someone that. If they are abusing or hurting us in

any way to stop it or we will take further steps and the law is

on our side, there are other ways to get out of this situation.

Like support groups and counselling.

Thank you for teaching me not to be afraid and that whatever

comes my way I can stand on my feet and face it eye to eye.

I am also grateful for not hiding and feeling ashamed anymore about what happened to me and that I

am sick because of it.

I still got a happy and long life in front of me and my children that needs me. I now know how to be a

good loving caring mother and that it is important to stay in touch with family for support and love.

Thanks for the shelter, food, clothes, nice Christmas and everything that goes with it.

Amcare, people you were very helpful and supportive. I

will still be working at my work put my children at school

support and love them.

And maybe find someone to love us in the future and to be

there for them as a father figure.

But for now I would still like to have counselling sessions

with my children and maybe get their father involved also.

I think it would teach him what I have learned so far

maybe we could be able to work something out for the

fortune.

Very thanks

Susan and the children.

I am writing this letter to you on behalf of the rest of my

family to express our gratitude to you, for agreeing to be our

financial supporters from July 2017

As a family we lived in desperation because we struggled to

provide for ourselves the most essential need and wants,

such as food, clothing and education. It has been a terrible

condition as I and 3 siblings are being raised by a single

mother who is currently unemployed and having to depend

only on the social grant she receives for the other two

children. I would like to give much thanks to you as Widney

for having financially supported us as a family, for if we had

not received your help we would have lost all confidence

and hope to continue our lives. Now we feel warmth and are

extremely honoured with your generous support. Through

Amcare's assistance you gave given us loved and restored

our hope. Your kindness means a lot to us, as great as a

mountain.

Sponsoring the studies is not an easy take to do but as for you, you did very well on your side. I am

the first one I am my family to attend university and in my Second year at UNISA studying education.

My family are no longer starving as Amcare buys and delivers the groceries every month. I am happy

that my mom now does rest do to not having the stress about buying us good clothing for that is all

been done through Widney. Last but not least I am very glad that my younger sister has been placed

at a school where she receives good physical training and knowledge, well there is hope for a brighter

future for her.

Growing up in a underprivileged community has not only offered finical and academic challenges, but

also helped me to realise the value of a higher education. Your sponsorship has convinced me to

believe that my dream to be able to serve in an educational position will come true. My educational

pursuits would not be possible without you magnificent support from Widney and Amcare.

Thank you for enabling this opportunity

Audited Financial Report

AMCARE – ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING HELD 4/9/2018

TREASURERS REPORT

As noted in the auditor’s report, income was down by close on R1M.

We did however manage our expenditure accordingly, resulting in a surplus of R50,400 (R673,150).

Amcare, compared to the recent past-is in a good space with year-end cash on hand standing at R1.4M.

Much reliance is still placed on Government Funding and given the state of the economy, the rest of 2018 to March year end, is not going to be easy.

We do however have the right team in place and look forward, in faith, to the challenges that lie ahead.

To the auditors, thank you for your contribution, it is really appreciated.

Treasurer
