Chas Everitt Bloemfontein Reaches Out
On
a beautiful early spring day the Bloemfontein branch of Chas Everitt International
Property Group set aside some time to reach out to their local community. The
Bloemfontein based Free State Residential Care Centre annual Spring walk presented
this opportunity to care for those far less privileged than most of us. Involved
were more than 500 children and young adults from the Lettie Fouche school for
the mentally disabled, a group from the Free State Residential Care Centre as
well as a group from the Sunflower organisation for children with aids.
The Chas Everitt team arrived early at the tranquill National Botanical Gardens
just outside the city and set up a watering point while awaiting the walkers.
As the sun became hotter everything was ready for the hundreds of walkers to
reach their halfway mark the Chas Everitt gazebo with 600 bottles of
prepared water and fresh slices of orange.
They
arrived in different groups some really exhausted - and were so thankful
for the halfway refreshments. Some asked for extra water and more slices of
orange and the Chas agents gladly helped each and everyone.
Everybody from the Chas team expressed the fact that this little bit of care
was more than worthwhile after seeing and experiencing the joy and enthusiasm
of these young people with disabilities.
According to branch manager, Willie Coetzer, this outreach will become a regular
event in the ChasCare program of the Bloemfontein office of Chas Everitt International.
