Ilse van den Berg hasn't added a story.
We, Ilse van den Berg and Lara Neumark, are two students that currently volunteer at “The Friends of Children`s Hospital Association” (FOCHA) in Cape Town (South Africa).
FOCHA is a non-profit organisation registered with the Department of Social Development, which has been a support organisation to the Red Cross War Memorial Children’s Hospital(RXWMCH) in Rondebosch since 1978.
The hospital has 290 beds for inpatients and 73 outpatient clinics. Most patients are from underprivileged communities and more than one third of the patients are under a year old. They are often the sickest of sick children who need highly complex interventions to recover.
FOCHA is the lead organisation providing non-medical support to patients, parents and caregivers at the RXWMCH. Services such as: Family Support Programme, Services to patients, wards and clinics and Community Services.
We are raising money to support the nonprofit organisation, so they can continue making sick children smile and supporting their families during this hard time. The money will be used to buy clothing for parents and children, toys, blankets, hygiene packs, birthday presents and food packages.
At FOCHA, we believe that laughter and happiness enhance the healing process, giving the child a quicker recovery.
