Once again, Bergvliet Lions was blessed with a huge donation of Easter Eggs. We thank the families from Bergvliet Primary and Westcott Primary for their extreme generosity. Thanks to all of you, we were able to bring Easter cheer to 30 different organisations. These include ECDs, OAHs, facilities for physically and mentally challenged, residents in informal settlements, children's homes, hospitals, as well as to the brave men and women at Wynberg Fire station. Your kindness has made a huge difference in many lives this Easter, and for this, we say THANK YOU!
Here are a few photos with recipients.

And to day we planted veggies at Rosedon House! Been a long time coming and last week the heat was just too much. We have kicked off with: broccoli, beans, cabbage, cauliflower, spinach, turnips, carrots, leeks, onions, parsley, celery, coriander, chives. First phase. Staff were so excited and willing to help us too. They can't wait for the veggies to be used in their own kitchen. There are 12 large custom made planter boxes and there is something in everyone. Now we too wait to see the fruits of our labour. This project was made possible by a donation from the LC Bexhill (UK). Their money paid for the boxes, gardening tools etc .

Today work started at Rosedon House's veggie garden. Thanks to LC Bexhill we were able to have special boxes made, to accommodate those residents in wheelchairs. Boxes were placed in the correct areas and filled with soil and compost. Next step is to purchase the first batch of seedlings. We are hoping to involve as many residents as possible to help tend the garden. This will be part of their therapy. Was a lovely hot productive morning.

January, Hunger Awareness Month. Bergvliet Lions makes up between 18 and 20 packets of Hope, to be distributed to the needy, every month. These packets contain rice, lentils, dry soup mix, a packet of soup powder and a stock cube. When cooked, it makes a pot of food, enough for 4 + adults. The club has been doing this since lockdown in 2020. Packets are given to needy families/organisations, as the need arises. In January the packets were given to a young mother of triplets, living in one of the townships and also to the ICAN Academy in Parkwood. ICAN and the triplets also received school stationery to kick start the year.

Today Bergvliet Lions got together for a lunch braai at Jane's home. We always celebrate at the beginning of the new year, as life is too busy before Christmas. Was lovely having Paul visit us, as he lives in Cape Town now. The cherry on the top was the club recognizing Jane for all her hard work and always being so willing to accommodate us at her home for meetings and other club practices. She was presented with a Melvin Jones Fellowship. Well deserved Jane and thank you for all you do.

Today, Bergvliet Lions held their final book sale. This project has been running for just over 30 years. We are finding it too strenuous to continue. Sad, but true.
We thank each and every member of the community who have supported us over the years. A huge thank you to the owners of the Meadowridge Family Shopping Centre who took us in a year ago when we lost our spot at Park n Shop. Been a great year for us.
For those celebrating, may you have a Blessed Christmas. Hope 2026 will be a good year for all.

Today we dropped off Christmas Gift bags to the children that attend Precious Angels ECD in Retreat. Lion Jane receives sponsorship for this project. Her daughter in law does a magnificent job of decorating the bags for us. Each one is different. LP Sharon and I went down to the facility this morning to drop off the gifts. We were very well received by the little ones!
Our last service project for 2025....now we can put our feet up and relax before 2026 arrives.

We regret to inform everyone that this will be our last book sale. After 30 years, we will no longer be holding these monthly sales. The project has become physically taxing for us. We wish to thank each and every one of the community who has supported us over the years.
All books will be sold off at R10 each. We also have a selection of CDs and DVDs which will be sold off at bargain prices.
YOCO facility available.
