Zimbabwe Pensioner Assistance

	Africa Everything		You probably know that some pensioners in Zimbabwe are facing starvation. Many of the over 12 000 Zimbabwe pensioners in South Africa are now also destitute. Thousands of Zimbabwe Pensioners have not received their pension for almost three years. The Zimbabwe Government stopped paying non-resident pensioners from April 2003. Several of these are war widows and disabled war veterans. Those with close family are the lucky ones. Some have NOBODY to support them. Many would rather starve than ask for charity ! Did you know that several Zimbabwe Pensioners in South Africa are now donating their blocked funds to needy pensioners in Zimbabwe ? WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO REWARD THESE DESPERATE FOLK IN RETURN ? PLEASE HELP ! ANYTHING YOU CAN AFFORD TO GIVE, BIG OR SMALL, WHICH ENABLES US TO HELP OUR PENSIONERS IS GREATLY APPRECIATED. The FLAME LILY FOUNDATION (FLF) is working together with the ROTARY CLUB OF HARARE CENTRAL in Zimbabwe on a project to ensure that donations from Zimbabwe Pensioners in South Africa are put to best use. The FLF will grant Zimbabwe Pensioners an equivalent amount in South African rand, at the parallel exchange rate, to that which they donate to Rotary Club, Harare Central, through us. We can only do this for as long as we are able to replenish our Fund for the Aged. Cheques in South African Rand, crossed "not transferable", should be made out to: FLAME LILY FOUNDATION and posted to: Mr John Redfern Honorary National Secretary Flame Lily Foundation PO Box 95474 WATERKLOOF 0145 South Africa Direct deposits can be made to: FLAME LILY FOUNDATION Account No.: 1500680799 Bank: ABSA Bank Swift address: ABSAZAJJ FOREIGN transfers to the above account are welcome, but are subject to bank charges.

By providing financially to help Zimbabwe Pensioners in South Africa you are simultaneously helping suffering pensioners in Zimbabwe.
