Security company spreads joy at Jona Vaughan Home

The Jona Vaughan Home in Amanzimtoti was thrilled with a recent donation from a private security company last week. Fidelity ADT received a wish list from the home and ran a collection among staff for basic necessities such as toiletries and food to assist.

“Jona Vaughan Home is a residential facility that caters for residents who are mentally and physically challenged and we depend on donations and funding to run our operation,” said senior supervisor, Gretta Hlongwa.

The home is managed in an excellent manner and serves as a safe environment for those in need. “We are a non-profit organisation and we look after people from the age of five to 70. We provide them with meals and we also have a psychiatrist and social worker who come in once a month to work with our patients. We run daily support groups and we also provide indoor and outside games,” said Gretta.

The Fidelity ADT team delivered a few boxes filled with their collection of goods which forms part of their Fidelity Foundation initiative to Gretta and her team. “It has been an honour to make a small, collective contribution towards the Jona Vaughan Home and their team at the start of the year,” said Fidelity ADT’s district manager for KwaZulu-Natal, Vaughan Pillay.

“We would like to thank the Fidelity Foundation and in particular the Fidelity ADT team in Durban. We truly appreciate their donation and know that these goods will help us support our patients,” said Gretta.
