Fourways wears tekkies for a good cause

FOURWAYS – How did you spend your Tekkie Tax Day?

 

The Fourways community left a little sparkle on 25 May as schools and businesses across the area celebrated Tekkie Tax Day by buying their stickers, shirts and colourful laces in support of local charities.

Jaci Tibbit, Mrs Mzantzi Africa 2018 winner and a proud supporter of the Tekkie Tax initiative, visited 13 schools and businesses around the greater Fourways area who took part in the day to say thank you for their participation.
