Perpetual Care Trust (PCT)

The Perpetual Care Trust offers a unique long-term care solution for profoundly disabled adults through an innovative network of committed supporters—including family members, friends, and extended community connections. This comprehensive approach provides aging parents with the necessary peace of mind that comes from knowing their loved ones will receive continuous financial and emotional

support throughout their lives.

Building on the proven foundation established by pioneering families like Anke and Markus’s, the PCT is designed to expand its reach and transform the lives of more families facing similar challenges in future. Our ultimate mission is simple yet powerful: to ensure that no parent faces the overwhelming uncertainty of securing lifelong care for their profoundly disabled adult child alone.

Through the PCT, families gain access to a sustainable support network that extends far beyond traditional care models, creating a legacy of care that endures for generations.

Fundraiser

Fundraising

By joining our team of special givers with a monthly donation of R250 (or whatever you can afford), you can give this family the security and peace of mind they deserve. Your kindness will ensure that Anke and Markus continue to be cared for with love, both now and in the future.

Anke and Markus are the first beneficiaries of the Perpetual Care Trust, which in future as a PBO (Public Benefit Organisation - registration pending), aims to support other families on a similar journey, providing peace of mind in the long-term care of profoundly disabled adult children.
