Louis Massyn se 50ste Comrades help outistiese kinders
George Herald
|George Herald
'n Lang verwagte droom het onlangs vir die Legacy Centre in Denneoord waar geword toe hul terapiekamer volledig met professionele apparate toegerus kon word danksy Outeniqua Harriers-hardloper, Louis Massyn.
Die sentrum is 'n privaat, nie-winsgewende organisasie wat onderrig verskaf aan kinders met spesiale behoeftes en outisme en die terapiekamer speel 'n onontbeerlike rol in die kinders se sensoriese integrasie.
Fondse is 'n nimmereindigende uitdaging en 'n volledig toegeruste terapiekamer het die sentrum bly ontwyk - totdat die 74-jarige Massyn vanjaar op die toneel verskyn het.
Hy het in Junie die eerste persoon geword om sy 50ste Comrades te voltooi en het dié geleentheid en groot mylpaal in sy loopbaan gebruik om in samewerking met Legacy Centre bewusmaking oor die sentrum te skep en vir hulle geld in te samel.
