CASIDRA AND RADIO KC MARK MANDELA DAY WITH COMMUNITY-FOCUSED INITIATIVES
In honour of Mandela Day on July 18, 2024, Casidra and Radio KC collaborated to make a significant impact in the Drakenstein Municipal area. Over the course of 67 minutes, the partnership prepared and distributed 670 cups of soup to local homes, embracing Nelson Mandela’s legacy of selfless service.
The efforts went beyond merely distributing meals. Casidra donated gardening kits, which include a water pump, seedlings, compost, and mushroom grower kits to the Paarl School of Skills in Simondium. These resources are aimed at enhancing the school’s agricultural education and sustainability initiatives.
The day’s activities also included a visit to the Pebbles Project in Kraaifontein. In celebration of its 20th anniversary, the project received school stationery packs for learners from grades R to 7 and hygiene care packs for young adults. The Pebbles Project is renowned for providing essential educational and health services to children from farming communities.
The success of these initiatives was made possible by generous contributions from Kaap Agri, Nel Tanks, HLA Boerdery, Wild Plum Growers, and Casidra’s staff. Their support underscores Mandela’s belief in the power of giving one’s time and energy to assist others with genuine selflessness.
Casidra and Radio KC are proud to honour Mandela’s legacy and remain dedicated to acts of kindness and generosity throughout the year.
