For Mandela Day 2014, ML Technologies supported Pedeta Community Services, a non-profit organization. For this project, Boikgantsho Primary School in Mamelodi East was identified as their selected beneficiary. Currently this school has 1043 pupils who are in desperate need of basic stationary.
ML Technologies funded these items and on Friday 25 July 2014 these items to the value of R30 029.99 for all leaners from Grade R to Grade 7 which included Exercise Books, Pencils, Plastic pocket files, Erasers and Sharpeners were delivered to the school and handed over to the principal, Mr. K.A. Kobo.
On Monday 28 July we went back to the school and all items were distributed to all the pupils individually. The sponsorship by ML Technologies made a huge impact on the lives of all these learners as it is the most basic needs for each to utilise during their lessons in class. The children were very grateful and excited about these much-needed items. We enjoyed the days at the school with the children and teachers in celebrating the gift of sharing.
A big thank-you to ML Technologies for supporting Pedeta Community Services in this charity undertaking; hopefully the first of many to come!!
