Hilton Covered, the upmarket business directory focused on Hilton which is compiled and produced annually by DP Design and HiltonVillage.co.za, was the catalyst that resulted in Singakwenza receiving a R15, 000.00 donation from NCT Forestry Co-operative Limited.
Hilton Covered gives Hilton based projects complimentary exposure online and also in the directory under the title Hilton Cares. This exposure enabled the PR & Communications Manager at NCT Forestry to identify a project they could aid. The biggest hero in this tale is NCT Forestry, but we are thrilled to bits that our business directory played a small role in this very happy event!
'Being featured in Hilton Covered, under Hilton Cares, led to a mutually beneficial partnership for Singakwenza and NCT Forestry. The ultimate beneficiaries being the children at the crèches that Singakwenza mentors. NCT donated funding to enable the children at Senzokhule crèche to enjoy some new tables and chairs, Mickey Mouse crèche will have an awning over their play area enabling the children to play come rain or shine and Singakwenza will run 3 Waste2Toys workshops teaching caregivers how to make educational toys from waste. Each delegate will be given a pair of sharp scissors and a marker pen, sponsored by NCT, to use at the workshop.
Collaboration between corporates and non-profit organisations is extremely valuable ensuring that those in economically disadvantaged communities benefit from the partnerships.
Thank you to Hilton Covered for making this possible and to NCT for your generosity! 'Said Linda Hill, Project Coordinator and Fundraiser at Singakwenza.
