On Thursday, the 20th of January, 2022, Afrika Tikkun Uthando Centre hosted TotalEnergies South Africa as they kick-started their stationery donation campaign and gifted our pre-schoolers and school-going children with backpacks and stationery items. As part of their Corporate Social Responsibility Action! Program, TotalEnergies South Africa launched a Back to School Campaign which aims to empower and build local communities, and this year, the multinational energy company started the year by assisting and enabling learners registered in our Child and Youth Development (CYD) and Early Childhood Development (ECD) programme with back-to-school goodies!
Our Early Childhood Development programme is a foundational programme that tends to the first step in supporting our children’s intellectual and social growth with a major outcome of getting children school-ready. Upon completion, graduated grade R learners are then absorbed into our Child and Youth Development programme – an afterschool programme designed to improve the developmental years through adequate education, leadership, arts, sporting, career and personal development, specifically while still in the schooling system. All Afrika Tikkun centres of excellence will receive school supplies for registered learners in both the ECD and CYD programmes.
“TotalEnergies South Africa has been with us for a while. It always warms my heart with its thoughtful donations and gifts. I would like to express a big thank you, for taking care of our children while meeting us, as parents, halfway” – added a parent after the stationery handover at Uthando Centre.
Thank you TotalEnergies South Africa
