Donations In Kind (DIK)

Donations in Kind are general donations of white elephants, clothing, as well as new and second hand household goods. Things that you don’t need anymore can be used in Heartbeat's programmes and could really make a difference in someone's life. Individuals who want to make a "Donation in Kind" can contact Heartbeat's SACIN Manager, Karina Swann at karina@heartbeat.org.za.

For 2010 Heartbeat has created a "DIK" Calendar with different campaigns running according to the needs of children in our programmes during that particular month(s). Please see our "DIK" Campaign Calendar below. If you, your family, friends or colleagues would like to get involved in one or more of these campaigns, kindly contact karina@heartbeat.org.za

Emergency Fund

The purpose of the Heartbeat Emergency Fund is to provide relief for orphans who are facing emergencies or crises. When Heartbeat staff identifies such a case, a request for Emergency Funds is sent to the Head Office in Pretoria. The request is then assessed and if determined to be a real crisis, funds are immediately made available from the Emergency Fund.
Emergency Funds are mostly used in cases of natural disasters (including fires and floods), break-ins, loss of property and loss of life.
When a child in Child Headed Household dies, the siblings very seldom have the means to bury their brother or sister. Heartbeat uses money from the Emergency Fund to ensure that our children receive a dignified burial.
Individuals who are interested in contributing towards Heartbeat's Emergency Fund, can deposit funds in the following account:

• NAME: HEARTBEAT (EMERGENCY FUND)
• BANK: ABSA
• BRANCH: LYNNWOOD RIDGE
