Tekkie Tax needs your support now more than ever

Tekkie Tax needs your support now more than ever

 

Tekkie Tax month is on the go through-out August with a huge kick off on 6 August 2021!
This year’s theme is ”better together”.
Several national non-profit organisations have taken hands to enable a singularly focused national fundraising campaign. Tekkie Tax is a dynamic project, owned and managed by welfare organisations, to the benefit of welfare organisations.
From the aged to children, animals to the ill, and persons with disabilities all benefit from Tekkie Tax.
Epilepsy SA in Parys depends on Tekkie Tax to be able to raise much- needed funds.
”In the past, it was one of our greatest sources of income”, says Gary Westwood, the director.

 

“Last year, Covid-19 affected the campaign very badly and although we expected an improvement this year, the last lockdown affected our ability to market the campaign. That is why the campaign is for a month this year and not only a day.”
By buying a R10 sticker or shoelaces, and a sticker for R35, your support will assist tremendously in caring for persons with disabilities.
Items are available at Epilepsy SA in Boom Street, Parys Info or by phoning Bianca on 064 026 0232 to arrange delivery.
Our mascot, Happy, is also eager to attend your business or school to promote Tekkie Tax and to boost a much-needed spirit of happiness in the community.
