EMBOCRAFT Training Centre Trust (ETCT), a Bothas Hill-based NPO, is due to host a Spring fair on September 4.
The highlight of the Spring Fair will be a performance by Making a Difference (MAD). The organisation has run feeding schemes, inoculation clinics and sterilisation and upliftment projects in the areas located around Summerveld for the past three years. Additionally, they have formed, equipped and supported crèches and have now started bands and choirs in primary schools.
MAD has received a donation of recorders from Brian Lappin, founder member of the Black Eyed Peas in the United States. Lappin’s company sponsors a designated music teacher who instructs the learners in recorder and singing. MAD is proud of their achievements and has taught 60 children to read music in Shongweni and Stanger.

Profits generated from the Spring Day will be used to support the Embocraft Training Centre Trust’s projects. Embocraft holds community training as its core function. The NPO upskills people in various disciplines, such as sewing, basic computer skills, arc welding, fabric painting and woodwork.
The training courses offered are aimed at those in the community who have difficulty in attaining formal qualifications but who need to generate an income.
Celebrate the start of spring with Embocraft, and support a good cause at the same time.
Date: Sunday, September 4
Time: 08:30 to 14:00
Venue: Embocraft, 27 Old Main Road, Bothas Hill
