Dit bly vir my ‘n eer en ‘n voorreg om verslag te doen van die werksaamhede van die SAVF, want met die saamstel van so ‘n jaarverslag kom mens altyd onder die indruk van die reuse werk wat verrig word.
SAVF renders a wide range of services in cities, towns and communities. Services rendered in communities reach more persons than those in facilities. SAVF focuses on all persons in the community. Direct services indicate a ratio of 46% whites and 54% to other population groups.
Die werksareas van SAVF is hoofsaaklik in 5 provinsies van Suid-Afrika nl: Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, Mpumalanga, Limpopo en Noordwes, met dienste vanuit programme en projekte wat ook oor ander provinsies strek. Hierdie dienste word gelewer in 23 welsynsdistrikte en 346 stedelike gebiede, dorpe en gemeenskappe.
SAVF services are coordinated from the National Office in Pretoria with the National Executive Board as the governing body. They make use of four steering committees:
• The Marketing Steering Committee • Organization Development Steering Committee • Steering Committee for Services • Operational Steering Committee.
The services rendered by SAVF are in three fields:
Care of the Aged and People with disabilities:
In residential facilities SAVF took care of 4582 persons in the past year. The limited income of 63% of residents in old age homes justified government subsidy. 10% of residents in SAVF housing schemes are subsidized by the organisation. Die besettingsyfer van tehuise was 92% en dié van behuisingsfasiliteite 82% . Dienste word ook vanuit die fasiliteite en dienssentrums aan bejaardes in die gemeenskap gelewer.
Child and Youth Care:
SAVF rendered services to 62 013 children on several levels e.g. daycare, children’s homes, shelters, case work and also community services. Die 596 kinders wat in spesiale kinder- en jeugsentrums gehuisves word, ontvang gespesialiseerde dienste van 8 maatskaplike werkers. Daar was ‘n toename van kinders in pre-primêre skole. Een van hierdie skole het selfs internasionale bande met ‘n kleuterskool in Noord-Ierland gesmee.
Social Development
We are very proud of the 61 social workers at 34 social work offices, assisted by social auxiliary workers, who delivered social services to 34518 aged persons, family members and children.
Finansieel word daar van SAVF verwag om fyn te beplan en te begroot omdat ons afhanklik is van staatsubsidies om ons begroting te laat klop. Dit stel hoë eise aan ons fasiliteite, maar ten spyte daarvan het SAVF nog altyd daarin geslaag om te voorsien in sy behoeftes.
As organisasie wat in 1904 as gevolg van armoede ontstaan het, streef SAVF nog steeds armoedebekamping na. Om aan die gemeenskap al hierdie dienste te lewer, is SAVF afhanklik van ons 1932 vrywilligers wat die ruggraat van die organisasie is en ons 2442 personeellede, sonder wie SAVF nie kan klaarkom nie.
‘n Opregte woord van dank en waardering aan almal van u. Met die seën van die Here kan SAVF die uitdagings van die toekoms tegemoetgaan.

On 19 October 2009 the SAVF celebrated her 105th birthday. It was the dedication, vision and perseverance of individuals, donors, volunteers and staff that ensured the survival and growth of the SAVF. During the past few years it became evident that a Welfare Organisation had to be managed in a professional way, based on good governance to survive financially and functionally. The expectations of government, donors and the public can no longer only be satisfied through the goodwill of others. Legislation and reports like the King Commission puts the welfare organisation in the same frame of good governance as any other business. The Institute of Directors stated in Business Day on 26 August: “Although the King III report on corporate governance was written generally with companies in mind, it also applies to non profit organisations….” The many policies, guidelines and systems the SAVF has developed over the years, support the necessity to manage, even a welfare organisation, within a good governance framework. At the same time, the organisation has to assess the effectiveness and relevancy of its service delivery. The Annual Report tries to highlight the services that have been rendered the past year. SAVF Head Office, defined as a “national organisation”, has the following aim: “ …to serve the best interests, uphold the rights, ensure social justice and the social well-being of the people within its particular focus area. This is achieved by unifying, strengthening, developing and representing constituent organisations.” The roles fulfilled by a national organisation, are seen as the following:
• To advocate and lobby on behalf of its constituency;
• To collectively represent its constituency at national level regarding legislation, policy, procedures,
decision-making and other developments or situations that affect its constituency;
• To facilitate organisational development and institutional capacity building of its constituency;
• To develop policies, programmes, procedures and practice guidelines for implementation at
national, provincial and local level;
• To keep its constituency continually informed about all relevant developments;
• To conduct awareness campaigns on behalf of its constituency;
• To promote partnerships and liaise with relevant stakeholders and role-players;
• To monitor and assess needs, services, policies, procedures and practice which may include
database, research and quality assurance;
• To mobilise resources for own programmes and activities as well as for the constituency;
• To provide leadership and co-ordinate strategies, programmes and events within its constituency.

With the roles and functions of a national organisation in mind, the Business Program of the SAVF National Office, has the following objectives: OBJECTIVE 1: To facilitate and improve the process of transformation and organization development
as stated and accepted by SAVF. OBJECTIVE 2: To build the capacity of national, provincial and local management, volunteers, staff,
students and upcoming organisations. OBJECTIVE 3: To network on international, national, provincial and local level in order to promote
services and new developments. OBJECTIVE 4: To monitor and evaluate the quantity, quality and appropriateness of services in
relation to national standards and priorities. OBJECTIVE 5: To market the services of the organisation in order to promote community
involvement, financial support and strengthening of service delivery. The past year difficulties were experienced with the shortage of social workers; the availability of volunteers at management level; the irregular or no payment of government subsidies to sustain services and the fragmentation of service fields, despite a policy of holistic, integrated services by government. The following achievements can be highlighted:
- a well developed SAVF database which guides the need for services and development;
- the establishment of Provincial Committees and offices;
- the training of carers, managers, social auxiliary workers and volunteers;
- the provision of two study bursaries to social work students
- and the implementation of a SAVF Poverty Eradication Program.
During the past two years, the middle management professional staff was capacitated with the theory of research. Our mission is to integrate the theory in practice, especially within our own fields of service. In partnership with national networks, many inputs were made on the unacceptable election process of the SA Council for Social Service Professions and the minister’s neglect to appoint and inaugurate the Council and Professional Board for Social Workers. A draft working document on a Financing Policy for the Social Welfare Sector was developed and handed over to the Department of Social Development for further discussions. We trust that the next year will bring about a valuable and sound partnership between the government and civil society to assure effective services to those in need. Thank you to all colleagues, volunteers, donors and friends who make a difference in the lives of others.

• SAVF currently have 195 NPO registrations that incorporate the services of the organisation. The organisation is well known for
its services in cities in Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo, Mpumalanga
and North West, but more specially in several towns and rural areas.
• 193 414 Persons are reached through service rendering.
• Estimation if the impact on family members (X5) are taken into account = 967 070 persons.
A child and youth care centre is a facility for the
provision of residential care to children away from
their families, with therapeutic and developmental
programmes. A child can only be admitted by
means of a court order.
• 5 SAVF Kinder- en Jeugsorgsentrums
lewer dienste aan 596 kinders. Uit
elke 10 van hierdie kinders is 5 op
laerskool, 4 op hoërskool en nog 1 in
‘n voorskoolse fase.
Hoekom is hierdie kinders in die sentrum geplaas?
Hoofsaaklik vanweë:
• verwaarlosing, • wees of verlatenheid en • mishandeling, molestering, geweld of
misdaad.
Gespesialiseerde dienste wat gelewer word sluit in:
gesondheidsorg, terapie, sielkundige behandeling,
geestelike berading, arbeidsterapie, fisioterapie,
spraakterapie, oudiologie en opvoedkundige
leiding.
Early childhood development (ECD) is the process of emotional, cognitive, sensory, spiritual, moral, physical, social and
communication development of young children.
Early childhood education is the organized practice of educating those who are in early childhood, one of the most vulnerable stages in
life.
SAVF dra jaarliks by tot die ontwikkeling van meer as 4600 kinders van die babastadium tot en met skoolgaande ouderdom. 50%
van hierdie kinders in die 34 dagsorgsentrums is in hulle peuter – kleuterstadium van ontwikkeling. Dienste word ook aan kinders in
‘n babastadium en in Graad O / R (Ontvangs / Reception) gelewer.
6 emerging organizations affiliated with SAVF and were
officially supported.
Affiliation implies that the affiliated body may use the
knowledge, guidance, support regarding service rendering and
information as supplied by SAVF. An annual memorandum of
agreement determines what the support will be.
5 SAVF Deurgangshuise (shelters) het die
afgelope jaar 379 hawelose en weerlose persone
gehuisves. Dit sluit kinders, volwassenes en
bejaardes in. Met weinig, indien enige,
staatsubsidie is dit ‘n besondere taak om
huisvesting, voeding en professionele dienste te
lewer.
Die uitdaging is herinskakeling in die
gemeenskap!
61 Social workers focused on professional services.
Over and above other focus areas, the implementation
of the new Children’s Act 38 of 2005 has a major
impact on the work of the social worker. Several social
auxiliary workers assist in the extra needs, which they
are qualified to handle.
Dienste ten opsigte van voorkoming en vroeë
ingryping noodsaak ‘n fokus op gemeenskapsdienste.
140044 persone is hierdeur bereik, ook deur die
bemiddeling van uitreiking deur ander fasiliteite en
deur vrywilligers.
Die 32 SAVF tehuise vir bejaarde - en gestremde
persone het oor ‘n jaarperiode 3400 persone
bygestaan. Hierdie 24-uur diens is koste-intensief en
die uitdaging bly om dit bekostigbaar aan te bied vir
die persoon wat dié tipe versorging nodig het.
Navrae vir “goedkoper” behuising word daagliks van
jonger en ouer persone ontvang.
53 SAVF behuisingskemas voorsien in verskillende
behoeftes van sowat 2400 persone.
Bemagtiging van die ouer persoon in die gemeenskap
bly steeds die ideaal. 2078 persone het dienste van
21 dienssentrums benut. 18947 ander bejaardes
is deur projekte in die gemeenskap bereik.
All the SAVF facilities that function in terms of the
Older Persons Act 13 of 2006 are in the process of
reregistering at the Department of Social
Development, as required. SAVF adheres to minimum
standards and takes the protection of older persons
seriously.
SAVF is part of the National Reference Group for
Family Life. The vision of the Family Policy is based on
a well-functioning, independent, resilient and socially
integrated South African family that is able to nurture,
support and provide care to its members.
SAVF FAMNET lewer ‘n voorkomende diens vir die
bevordering van ouerskapsvaardighede, verbetering van
gesinsveerkragtigheid en gesinsbewaring. Hierdie
program het ontwikkel uit die vroeëre Ouerleidingaksie
en sluit die volgende dienste vir ouers in:
• ‘n inligtingstelsel oor aktuele onderwerpe en hulpbronne
• ‘n groepsteunstelsel • bevordering van ouerskap vir die werkende ouer • ‘n kwartaallikse tydskrif met aktuele inligting • die Botswadi program – “to be a parent”
With the “Wear to Care” campaign SAVF commemorated SAVF Family Day on the 15th of May 2010 and did fundraising for the different local services. The campaign for 2011 is planned for the period 15 April to 15 May. The purpose is to market and raise funds for SAVF services on all levels and to promote the SAVF and the International Family Day. Any person can take part in this event. 8

How does SAVF address poverty?
SAVF accepted a practical poverty program duringthe 2008 Congress. The focus is on several aspects
of life, which are influenced by circumstances of poverty.
Over and above direct services to personsin facilities and in the community,
1 of every 3 persons is assistedby means of material aid, food,
sponsorships, grants and other assistance.
“We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless.The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty.
We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.”Mother Theresa

1. APPROVAL OF THE NATIONAL EXECUTIVE BOARD (NEB) It is the responsibility of the NEB to ensure that the annual financial statements fairly represent the state of affairs of SAVF facilities as at 31 March 2010. The National Executive Board performs this duty primarily to ensure that the establishment and maintenance of accounting systems and practices are adequately supported by internal accounting controls. These controls, which are implemented and executed by management, provide assurance that the assets of the organisation are safeguarded, that transactions are properly authorised and executed and that the financial records are reliable. 2. AUDIT OPINION In our opinion, the annual financial statements fairly represent, in all material aspects the financial position of the facilities of the organisation as at 31 March 2010 and the results of its peration and cash flow for the year in accordance with South African Statements Accepted Accounting Practice. 3.

FINANCIAL RISKS The organisation is exposed to subsidies with the effect of fluctuations in the prevailing levels of decreased amounts on its financial position and cash flow. Although the Department of Social Development is still allocating subsidies to specific facilities and services, the slow payout of these funds is hampering services and puts the operations of these offices under huge pressure. Rising costs also have a huge impact on service delivery, as the sources of income are limited.
