Social Responsibility Council<br />
The SRC’s first drive since the<br />
nomination of the new Committee was<br />
a clothes drive which they ran in May.<br />
They managed to collect enough<br />
clothes to fill two vehicles and<br />
donated this to the MES Home in<br />
Johannesburg. This home helps its<br />
inhabitants by exposing them to<br />
structured programmes and the<br />
providing them with an exit<br />
opportunity to help them become<br />
sustainable citizens.<br />
The SRC made a donation towards Action for Blind and Disabled Children<br />
Organisation in June in commemoration of Youth Day.<br />
The funds went towards paying to help three youths complete a<br />
Microsoft Certified examination.<br />
For more information about this organisation visit www.action4.org.za<br />
The SRC donated their time on the 18th <strong>July</strong> <strong>2017</strong> at the Jerusalem<br />
Children’s Home in Midrand, along with much needed groceries.<br />
Axiz staff pitched in with clothing and food, making this yet another<br />
successful drive. The smiles on the children’s faces speak to their<br />
gratitude.
