Gary Rom Hairdressing Spreads Hope and Love at Rock of Hope Place of Safety

Pretoria, South Africa – In a beautiful gesture of compassion and community spirit, the Gary Rom Hairdressing group recently paid a special visit to the Rock of Hope Place of Safety in Magalieskruin, Pretoria. Known for their dedication to style and self-care, the Gary Rom team took time to care for others—most notably the children and toddlers who call Rock of Hope their temporary home.

The team came bearing essential items such as nappies, shampoo, and conditioner—seemingly small gifts that make a world of difference in the daily lives of those cared for by Mama Meintjies, the heart and soul of the Rock of Hope. Her unwavering love and tireless work to provide a safe and nurturing environment for vulnerable children inspired the Gary Rom Hairdressing group to give back in a meaningful way.

While the visit took place in celebration of Mandela Day, Gary Rom and his team emphasize that giving back should not be limited to one day on the calendar.

“Mandela Day reminds us of the power of kindness,” said a representative from Gary Rom Hairdressing. “But we believe this spirit should continue every day of the year. Mama Meintjies and the children at Rock of Hope deserve ongoing support, not just a moment of it.”

The visit was filled with smiles, laughter, and genuine connections—proof that beauty truly starts from the inside out.
