CTM World Food Day - October 2023
Every year on October 16th, the world observes World Food Day which aims to raise awareness and action for those who suffer from hunger and to highlight the need to ensure healthy diets for all. Today, CTM commemorated World Food Day with Mentor Day Care in Pretoria. The pre-school was assisted with much needed groceries required to prepare nutritious meals for the learners, as well as toys and other key essentials. At CTM we believe in lending a hand, one community at a time.
CTM Dignity Drive Project - May 2023
In 2017, the CTM Dignity Drive Project was established to provide sanitary pads to young girls attending school. The Bajabulile Primary School in Esikhawini, near Empangeni, was chosen for the donation of 400 reusable sanitary pads to girls in grades 4, 5, 6 and 7.
On May 5, 2023, Landiwe Ngubo and the team distributed the pads, bringing joy to the girls and a sense of accomplishment for the group.
School shoes for disadvantaged learners - May 2022
Large numbers of learners from disadvantaged homes in this country don’t have appropriate shoes to wear to school.
In an endeavour to restore these children’s dignity and confidence, the CTM team in Limpopo identified a school they felt could benefit from a donation of school shoes.
The CTM team visited Khunda Primary School in Louis Trichardt to donate school shoes, socks and school bags to the 46 learners enrolled at the school. The school was extremely grateful for the assistance received for the learners.
CTM Dignity Drive Project - August 2022
As we wrapped up Women’s Month, representatives from our CTM store in Port Elizabeth visited Gelvandale High School to donate sanitary pads to all the girls from Grades 8 to 12.
With the assistance of our implementation partner, all the girls received reusable sanitary pads and were given a talk on menstrual health and the reproductive system.
Through our CTM Dignity Drive, our goal is to enable these girls to continue their education without the burden of hygiene risks, discomfort or the loss of dignity.
