<strong>Dear</strong> <strong>Friends</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Dutchies</strong>,<br />
"Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much!"<br />
We are inviting you to be part <strong>of</strong> a special initiative that is exclusively aided to raise funds for<br />
Overstrand Association <strong>of</strong> People with Disabilities (OAPD).<br />
OAPD is a special organisation based in the Overstrand Region that cares for over 450<br />
individuals with disabilities.<br />
In collaboration with The Global Challenge and Hermanuspietersfontien; <strong>Dutchies</strong> will be<br />
hosting a week <strong>of</strong> Awareness for OAPD.<br />
We challenge you to get involved and help a very worthy cause in Hermanus!<br />
We have planned a range <strong>of</strong> events, that will allow for many opportunities to get involved.<br />
See OAPD Awareness Week Program<br />
Previously, we could have never have raised such incredible awareness <strong>of</strong><br />
OAPD without the help <strong>of</strong> the friends <strong>of</strong> <strong>Dutchies</strong>, we sincerely appreciate it<br />
and can only hope for the same support once again this year! Please follow our<br />
Facebook page for more information and we will keep you posted on our<br />
program for our awareness week dedicated to OAPD!<br />
Tot ziens<br />

The Concept<br />
This week is designed to raise awareness about the diverse experiences <strong>of</strong> people with<br />
disabilities in our community. We would like to challenge assumptions and stereotypes that<br />
society and people have regarding people with disabilities. Beyond the awareness campaign,<br />
we would like to find opportunities to raise funds for the disabled. Events hosted by <strong>Dutchies</strong><br />
will occur throughout the week from the 19 th until the 26 th February 2017.<br />
Organisation: OAPD (Overstrand association <strong>of</strong> People with Disabilities)<br />
OAPD work with individuals with disabilities and their families<br />
where they take the lead in achieving their potential, dreams and<br />
goals, and ultimately independence. This may include (but is not<br />
limited to) sourcing mobility devices, dealing with social issues<br />
within the home, arranging for home care, caring and stimulating<br />
children with severe disabilities or lobbying for accessibility in the<br />
community.
