Every child deserves to arrive safely at a place where they are seen, supported and loved.

On a crisp June morning, the Val de Vie Foundation handed over 10 transport buggies to Milani Daycare, run by the Drakenstein Association for Persons with Disabilities (DAPD). These buggies will help children with severe and profound disabilities travel safely to a place of care, growth, hope and belonging.

We are deeply grateful to the generous Val de Vie Estate resident who made this gift possible by embracing our call for a Better Life for All. His kindness helped open doors, create opportunities and remind every child that they matter.

Since 1985, DAPD has supported persons with disabilities and their families across THE Paarl-Franschhoek Valley. We are proud to stand alongside their dedicated team, whose work continues to uplift lives with dignity, compassion and heart.

A special salute to Val de Vie Foundation volunteer Helen Prozesky, who stepped forward to serve on the DAPD board and continues to lead by example. Helen, you are an inspiration to us all.
