After receiving a request from City of Ekurhuleni social workers to assist learners in need Peermont Community Benefit Trust stepped in and provided 25 learners with new uniforms and school shoes.
The call for assistance came after families, living in Ward Nine, lost everything when their homes, located on the banks of the Thembisa river, were washed away in late February.
After funding was approved, PCBT, a CSI initiative of Emperors Palace, representatives visited and donated the uniforms to learners at two schools on May 24.
Schools which were visited included Gahlanso Primary School and Marhulana Primary School.
