Here at Hot Cares, we not only love sustainable initiatives, but also people who put the needs of others ahead of their own. That’s definitely the case with Nthabiseng, who brought us the story of a group of elderly and retired men and woman in her community who have developed and grown a vegetable garden and spend their days planting, harvesting, expanding, and attending to the vegetables. This is their story and how Hot Cares is going to help them. Hot Cares

Most of us take the use of our legs for granted. Not Carmen, a 45-year-old wife, mother and cancer survivor who was born with a dislocated hip and club feet. Her disability is on the left side of her leg and caused her spine to grow abnormally, resulting in her spending most of her life with pain and discomfort. This is her story and how Hot Cares is going to help her. Hot Cares

2023/08/10

South Africa has some of the most dangerous roads in the world and unfortunately that means we’re a population well-acquainted with car accidents. The chances are, if you haven’t been in an accident yourself, you know of someone who has. You’ll also know, then, how devastating car accidents can be, claiming lives and leaving those who survive them with lasting damage. That’s what happened to 24-year-old Arno. Here is his story and how Hot Cares is helping him. Hot Cares

It’s been a long and painful road for Misha Cooper. In 2016 she was diagnosed with lupus, a chronic autoimmune disease that threatened her survival. It also resulted in Misha waking up every day with joint pain, fatigue, and unexplained rashes, and whilst she’s now overcome the worst of the disease, the lingering effects have resulted in Misha losing nearly all her teeth. Here’s how Hot Cares is stepping in to get her the vital dental work she needs. Hot Cares

The love of a mother knows no bounds. We see it all the time here at Hot Cares, but every time we receive a related story, it’s a reminder that there really is nothing like a mother’s love. Pauline is such a mother. Unfortunately, her daughter, Cleve, is very ill and no-one seems to know what’s wrong with her. This is her story and how Hot Cares is going to help her. Hot Cares

For Hot Cares, the primary goal remains making a meaningful difference to the lives of those around us. With that in mind, whilst most of our stories detail an intervention Hot Cares makes to help an organisation or individual, we also like to support the initiatives of our partners who are also doing good in the community. Like The Dis-Chem Foundation, which since 2015 has been running its ‘A Million Comforts’ initiative. Here are the details and how Hot Cares is getting involved. Hot Cares

It’s always great to see those who have gone on to achieve great things away from their community return to that same community and use that experience to do some good.

Woodside Sanctuary is a rather special place. It’s a registered PBO and NPO founded nearly 70 years ago and it’s a ‘home away from home’ for people with special needs. But, like many similar organisations, it relies on the support of donors, particularly with regards the maintenance of their facility, and this is where Hot Cares and The Dis-Chem Foundation have come in to help. Here’s their story. Hot Cares

2023/07/10

Some of the stories we receive at Hot Cares are hard to read, such as that of Sandra (not her real name) - a young woman just trying to get a start to her adult life, but facing a host of challenges, through no fault of her own. Fortunately, there is also love in Sandra’s life and it comes from her foster-mother, Barbara, who wrote Hot Cares an email, telling us her story. This is how Hot Cares will be helping her.

HOT Cares Eases the Burden for Desperate Hairdresser...

HOT CARES ·

2023/07/06

Certain jobs require certain skillsets, but some jobs are directly linked to our physical make-up and rely entirely on someone’s ability to use a particular part of the body. Such as hairdressing. You need the use of your hands and without that use, you simply can’t cut or style hair, meaning you can’t work. That’s the reality facing Rachel, following a freak accident at her son’s birthday party. This is her story and how Hot Cares is getting involved. Hot Cares

It’s been a rough few years for 13-year-old Thoko. She’s found herself on the receiving end of some hurtful teasing and bullying, and it’s through no fault of her own. Thoko’s story was brought to us by one of her teachers, Mrs Wessels, who explained that Thoko has issues with her teeth, and this is how Hot Cares and The Dis-Chem Foundation are coming together to change her young life.
