Serve

This is the charitable arm of our organization and we aim to serve the less fortunate community in the surrounding areas of Phoenix, Tongaat and Verulam. The charitable projects include a community kitchen based in Phoenix, distribution of groceries, clothes and counselling.

Menstrual Buddy Project

According to UNICEF, 1 in 10 girls in Africa miss school because of their menstrual cycle each year.

In South Africa, many girls miss 3-5 days of school each month because they cannot afford sanitary pads.

Absenteeism deprives many girls of a quality education and many don’t complete high school. Keeping girls in school is important for their well-being and for the success of the entire company.

How can you help?

For just R60 a month, you can support one girl with sanitary pads to keep her in school.
