Ms Cecilia van Wyk identified the need for an old age home and with the help of her husband, the mayor at that time, founded Herfsakker Old Age Home in 1979. Cecilia van Wyk, a volunteer worker for the South African Women’s Federation (SAVF), involved the organization and managed to raise funds by gaining the support of prominent business people and the municipality. Land was obtained and the goal of offering care, nutrition and socializing for older persons was achieved. The Herfsakker Old Age Home is a member of the South African Women’s Federation – a registered national welfare organization. Furthermore, the home is registered with the Mpumalanga Department of Health and Social Services as a frail care center and the National Department of Social Development as a non-profit organization. The SAVF is a community driven project and is managed by volunteers and a dedicated team of employees. The constitution of the SAVF was amended in recent years to allow men to become members of the organization.
