2nd Annual Fun Day at Port de Plaisance Country Club
Sister Basilia Center clients are annually treated to a day of fun and activities at Port de Plaisance where they are able to have full access to the pool and the tennis courts. The clients are of all ages – physically and mentally challenged children and adults.
This charity event is hosted by Jeff Boyd & his executive team to offer Sister Basilia Center clients a day of love. Along with the fun, laughter and games, they are also treated to a full and extravagant lunch at the restaurant next to the pool – a lovely shady place with a tasty menu.
One client is a particularly talented painter and will paint as often as he can. During the annual outing to Port de Plaisance, Albert showed his gratitude with great pride and handed over a painting to Jeff Boyd. This personal presentation brought such pleasure to the recipient who selflessly goes to Sister Basilia Center giving care and support throughout the year.
The non-profit centre was founded in 1984 and is located in St. John’s Estate on the White and Yellow Cross Foundation property that also houses St. Martin’s Home. The centre offers a day-care facility as well as guided living home for the clients. The goals of Sister Basilia Center include helping every individual with a disability to find his/her rightful place in society, while being treated with dignity and respect.
Fundraising and donations help towards getting materials for activities the clients really enjoy, such as art supplies and materials for craft projects.
