Mother’s Day 2021
Honouring & Celebrating Mothers
On Mother’s Day (9 May 2021) Bettabets wanted to honour the incredible, strong and brave mothers from the Frida Hartley Shelter who chose to challenge all odds in the pursuit of a BettaLife…for themselves and for their children. These women can often suffer from physical, financial, emotional, sexual and psychological abuse and challenges. However, in a spirit of true resilience they have constantly strived to better themselves and the lives of their children. It is well known that the strength of a mother is second to none. Nothing will stop her from finding the strength she needs to love and care for her children and no one shows it better that the mothers at the Frida Hartley Shelter.
And so, to honour these incredible women and to spoil them on Mother’s Day, Bettabets donated a delicious brunch at the beautiful Munch Cafe in Parktown North for the moms and their children from the Frida Hartley Shelter.
“So often, we focus only on ourselves on days such as Mother’s Day, spoiling our loved ones and treating our own. This donation was a treat for the soul, to be able to give so selflessly. It was absolutely wonderful to see the moms enjoying a well-deserved break, and we hope to do this more often,” says Leon Gerondoudis, Bettabets Director and cofounder.
Bettabets is committed to constantly seeking new ways to tackle Gender Based Violence. Sometimes, just taking a moment to celebrate our brave women is a step towards bettering their lives.
