Nog \u2019n nie-regeringsorganisasie (NRO) soek verwoed na maniere om geld in te samel te midde van die regering se beoogde begrotingsbesnoeiings van honderde miljoene rande.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Downsindroom-vereniging van die Wes-Kaap, wat in Bellville gele\u00eb is, doen \u2019n beroep op skole en ondernemings om hul \u201cfunky socks\u201d-projek te ondersteun om sodoende die organisasie en skole self ook te help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tineke Ganz-Malan, bestuurder van die vereniging, s\u00ea mense betaal R20 en dra dan op \u2019n dag in die week van 18 tot 22 Maart hul helderste (of onpaar) sokkies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die vereniging verskaf plakkers wat aan deelnemers gegee kan word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hulle doen \u2019n beroep op veral skole om hieraan deel te neem en s\u00ea skole kan dan R10 per elke plakker hou. Die orige R10 gaan aan die vereniging. \u201cDit is dus wen-wen,\u201d s\u00ea Ganz-Malan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die geld sal gebruik word om aan te hou om dienste te kan verskaf te midde van die nasionale regering se aankondiging dat hulle die begrotings van verskeie provinsies gaan besnoei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Wes-Kaapse regering is tans in \u2019n inter-regeringsdispuut betrokke oor die begrotingstekort van R1,1 miljard weens die loonverhogings van staatsamptenare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Wes-Kaapse departement van maatskaplike ontwikkeling het einde verlede jaar in \u2019n brief aan NRO\u2019s ges\u00ea die nasionale regering se beoogde begrotingsbesnoeiings gaan \u2019n reuse-impak op hul departement h\u00ea. Dit sal onder meer beteken dat hulle nie kan verseker dat organisasies vanaf 1 April nog hul befondsing van hulle af gaan ontvang nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Op 8 Februarie het die Downsindroom-vereniging saam met ander organisasies aan \u2019n noodvergadering deelgeneem wat deur die die Wes-Kaapse Netwerk op Gestremdhede (WCND) gelei is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hulle s\u00ea die tekort gaan R642,2 miljoen in die Wes-Kaap beloop. Monique Mortlock, die woordvoerder van Sharna Fernandez, Wes-Kaapse LUR vir maatskaplike ontwikkeling, het egter Maandag ges\u00ea die bedrag kan eers n\u00e1 7 Maart bekend gemaak word, aangesien die provinsiale begrotingsrede eers dan gelewer gaan word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meer as 70 organisasies het n\u00e1 die noodvergadering \u2019n vraelys ingevul oor hoe die besnoeiings hul werksaamhede sal be\u00efnvloed. Altesaam 22 het ges\u00ea hul sal heel moontlik hul deure moet sluit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Enige besnoeiing sal groot gevolge dra. \u201cDie druk op NPO\u2019s is geweldig,\u201d s\u00ea Ganz-Malan. \u201cOns sal nie ons dienste kan lewer sonder die voorlopige toelaes nie.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die vereniging bied ondersteuning aan mense met intellektuele gestremdhede en hul families in dele oor die Wes-Kaap heen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maatskaplike werkers maak seker families kan hul geliefdes met gestremdhede help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns bedryf ook die Umthi Spesiale Skool vir kinders van die ouderdom 3 tot 18 jaar wat multi-gestrem is (een van die gestremdhede moet intellektueel wees).\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hulle bied ook werksessies aan vir leerders wat by Umthi klaargemaak het om hul vaardighede by te hou. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Verder bied hulle ook ander dienste om pret vir diegene met gestremdhede te verskaf \u2013 soos om sokkies te hou, waar mense tot laataand saam kan dans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dit is egter vir hulle belangrik om bewusmaking te kweek. Die \u201cfunky socks\u201d-projek is \u2019n goeie geleentheid om ander te leer oor mense met gestremdhede.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
