New shoes for needy learners

The school shoe donation was part of the Winter Shoe Drive

NEEDY Nongoma learners were among the school children across the country to receive school shoes in commemoration of Youth Month.

As part of Liberty’s staff volunteer programme, 5 000 school shoes were donated to children from 30 rural schools.

‘At Liberty we are passionate about education because it’s the bedrock of achieving a sustainable future for our country,’ said Tracey Unser, Divisional Executive: Corporate Citizenship.

‘With so many families unable to afford shoes for their children, we’re so proud that our staff heeded the call to improve lives, one shoe at a time.’

Employees began the Winter Shoe Drive in 2017 and, to date, 10 000 pairs of shoes have been donated to various primary schools across the country.
