Help give elders homes where they can live in safety and comfort
Tafta is committed to creating safe and enabling living environments where elders can flourish. That means investing in maintenance of buildings and continuous replacement of equipment in daily use.
Please consider making a contribution towards these ongoing projects, which directly impact on the wellbeing of our elders. Monthly gifts are the most helpful in ensuring they can always count on safety, independence and a well-functioning home.
