Hearts Full of Joy: A Day of Care and Connection
Tuesday; 01st July 2025

This week, the collaborative efforts of SANZAF and IMASA Gauteng created one such moment,
transforming an ordinary day into something extraordinary for twenty cherished elders from Donovan McDonald.

The day began with anticipation and warm smiles as the group gathered for what would become more than just a shopping excursion.
Around shared tables, over a scrumptious lunch, stories flowed as freely as the laughter. These weren’t just meals being shared,
but memories being woven – new ones layered atop decades of lived experience. The sparkle in an elder’s eye when choosing a favorite treat,
the animated conversation over dessert, the grateful handshake at day’s end – these moments became
the real treasures of the experience.

In a world hungry for connection, they’ve reminded us that sometimes the most powerful
medicine is simply being seen, valued, and celebrated.
