She said it’s all about bridging the socioeconomic gap by helping learners and restoring their confidence regardless of their respective backgrounds.
Sindane added that as future leaders and customers, they believe that a step into a great future starts from local business and sponsors coming together to be of assistance.
“We used a list of learners in need received from the schools and as we are starting to have a relationship with these schools.
“There will be more to donate and give back because more than anything, the initiative is about how the learners feel and making them equal and confidence to the other learners,” Sindane said.
“Personally, it makes me feel good knowing that Diepkloof Square is part of local businesses that believe in encouraging positive change and standing up for what we believe rather than only using words.
“We are really hoping that going forward all plans we have with the schools will be successfully put into place and we will be receiving more smiles from our learners.”
