Diepsloot children jump for joy
MAGALIESSIG - For the 350 children at the Akani Centre in Diepsloot, December has been a month to remember as Montecasino treated them to a fun-filled Christmas party complete with face-painters, balloon sculptors, jugglers and jumping castles.
As part of parent company Tsogo Sun’s strategic corporate social investment policy, staff members in each Montecasino department, from the general manager’s office to finance, pledged their support to this local Diespsloot school earlier this year. Each department took a number of classes, and children, under their wing, visited them regularly to assist where needed.
The Christmas party was an extension of this initiative.
“Most of the children at the Akani Centre are underprivileged and it gave our staff great pleasure to give them an experience to bring a smile to their faces and some desperately needed Christmas cheer to their year,” said Glenn Joseph, general manager of Montecasino.
