Staff members of Keller Williams Realty generously gave their morning to help the youngsters of Linden’s Casa Do Sol School.
On the 13 May every year, the company hosts a community service initiative dubbed Red Day, where staff members give back to the communities the property group works in.
The day started with the staff entertaining some of the youngsters with a fun session of dancing, followed by the painting and upkeep of the children’s playground.
“This year, we chose Casa Do Sol School which is always in need of assistance,” said the company’s operating principal Estelle Ferreira.
The school helps learners with special educational needs and caters for learners between the ages of six and 21.
“Since 2009, our company has run this day internationally where agents around the world put their figurative tools down and give back to the communities that we serve and live. Red Day stands for renew, energise, and donate.”
Casa Do Sol School principal Ansonette Kraucamp said she was grateful to the staff of Keller Williams Realty for giving their time to help the learners of the school, and encouraged other businesses in the area to follow their example.
“As a school, it is always great to meet community role-players and businesses. We rely on a lot of support from people like them in both donations in funding and physical effort, and especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, things have not been easy. The time people donate to us and our learners is truly something valuable,” said Kraucamp.
Various sponsors helped make the morning a success.
“We have a variety of sponsors that generously donated paint and equipment to use to help us paint the playground and make the day special for the kids, and without them, this day would not be possible. I would also like to give a big word of thanks to our agents for their time and donations,” concluded Ferreira.
