Casual Day 2026 is underway and we wanted to remind you of how powerful your contributions can be. Look at these happy faces from Casual Day 2025! The stickers YOU bought made it possible for us to continue our work and we'd appreciate that same energy this year.

Get your stickers via our office contact details during office hours, or through your nearest contact who is selling. It's a great boost for APD in Makana :)

CASUAL DAY is APD Makana's largest fundraiser. It's happening on Friday 4 September this year.

You've come out in numbers to support this wonderful cause every single year. Every single year, we appreciate it. Our work supports people who were pushed to society's edges and it's nothing less than life-saving.

We give you our wish for another year of your support. Buy a R20 sticker and dress to the theme. Show your support for people living with disabilities in your community.

This year's theme is "Beat As One - Rhythm Matters". Everybody's rhythm gives something valuable to a vibrant society and we're celebrating that.

Get your stickers by contacting our office. We'll also be selling them in various places. The proceeds go to APD Makana and will support our operations for the next year.

Put your hands together for the young men of Kingswood College, South Africa! They stopped by on Mandela Day to do some much-needed tidying of our greenery. They showed up. They cleared the leaves. They drove away the loose branches. And now our offices look much better than before.

Their work honours Mandela's legacy and our community of honest people making their way through life. Our thanks go to all of them and Kingswood College for their efforts :)

Some good news as the Arts Festival approaches!

This is Nomthandazo Stuurman, one of our dear clients. She's been waiting for an RDP house for many years. Our social workers have supported her continuously through the process and she's finally found success! Her new home is finally under construction and we're sure she looks forward to its completion.🌟

We're just stopping by to thank the community in Makhanda for making our most recent tin collection drive a success. You showed up for us when we needed it, and we'll make sure your contributions go where they are needed.

Thank you so much, and may you all have a great month ahead!

APD Makana is holding another fundraising drive at Pick 'n' Pay Family - Pepper Grove this Saturday (28 March). We'll be there from 09h00 to 14h00 and are taking donations of cash, clothing items, and any other useful resources to help prepare our clients for winter.

We at APD know that times aren't easy. Inevitably, there's a person with a disability out there who experiencing worse and we aim to serve them. If you have anything to spare in support of our work, we greatly appreciate it.

We'll see you there. And thank you, as always.

Our hearty thanks go out to Kingswood College. Their students came by to do some spring (summer?) cleaning and removed some of the overgrown plants around our offices. Their good work helps APD and all the other organisations on our premises.

Kingswood College, South Africa, it's pupils, and staff always deserve credit for the wonderful volunteer work and community collaborations they foster with us. It's a pleasure to have them here.
