Steve Thobela ka Mdlalose from FESPA Foundation and his team visited the foundation’s beneficiary schools (Maleka, Pitseng ya Thuto, Madesei and Batau) in Limpopo for a formal handover of much needed educational collateral support materials, which were made possible by FESPA Foundation sponsors.
One of the pillars of the foundation is to repurpose print waste materials to support educational activities in rural communities by giving young learners better opportunities through access to improved resources.
The schools received educational posters, stationery, banners, instructional guides and various clothing items. Learners created colourful artwork with messages of gratitude to express their heartfelt appreciation to the FESPA Foundation and their esteemed donors. Evane Combine School in Dlomodlomo, KwaZulu-Natal, will receive supplies within the next few days.
FESPA Foundation is currently in the process of acquiring a bakkie and a trailer to enable the efficient delivery of supplies to the different beneficiary schools within Limpopo and KwaZulu-Natal. The foundation warmly invites those in the print industry to join them in transforming the lives of children in under-resourced schools by becoming partners.
‘We extend our heartfelt appreciation to the FESPA Foundation sponsor, Durst, for their generous support and making this possible,’ said team leader, Steve Thobela ka Mdlalose.
