MISA donates blankets for #MadibaDay
The winter is far from over - temperatures are expected to drop significantly this week, hitting the millions of homeless people, the most vulnerable being the elderly and children. MISA, the Motor Industry Staff Association, has donated fifty blankets to the Johannesburg Care Foundation, a registered non-profit organisation targeting the elderly and children.
Martlé Keyter, Chief Executive Officer of MISA, says the Union’s more than 65 000 members take their social responsibility to alleviate poverty seriously. There is still so much work to be done while up to 20 million South Africans are severely food insecure, with millions of children going to bed hungry each night. The focus this #MadibaDay is to work on its priority social justice areas – early childhood development and food security under the slogan: “It is still in our hands to combat poverty and inequity.”
“MISA has an established relationship with the Johannesburg Care Foundation. Last year, the Union donated fifty pairs of shoes. MISA believes the blanket donation this year, will help the foundation, committed to caring for the under privileged, elderly, sick and poor since 2012,” says Keyter. The Union identifies with the mission of the foundation: “To make a difference to the lives and condition of the poor, hungry and forgotten by sowing seeds of love, kindness, understanding and peace.”
This donation is one of several the Union is undertaking for #MadibaDay. MISA has already donated 500 blankets to the CMH Silver Lakes Multi-Franchise in Pretoria, towards the CMH Group’s annual Winter Warmth Drive.
