Waste collectors in eMbalenhle receive blankets from Sasol

Sasol held a Swop Shop winter clothes and blanket drive at eMbalenhle Sasol Club on July 6.

This marked the swop shop programme’s celebration of R1m value spent, invested on groceries, stationery and coupons to date for the community of eMbalenhle.

The swop shop is a community development programme founded by Sasol Secunda Junior Engineers in 2013 as part of the Sasol for Good Programme.

According to Sasol, the programme began at schools where learners were encouraged to collect waste and take it to the recreation club in exchange for school books and other learning necessities.

When most learners began to involve their parents and family members Sasol decided to involve everyone in recycling, young and old, and introduced vouchers.
