Support annual wheelchair challenge
The company hopes to raise R500 000 this year which will go to charities and various individuals.
A PINETOWN company, SBS Tanks, is targeting raising half a million rand at their fifth annual wheelchair challenge on Friday, March 14.
The company hosts this challenge every year in March as it is mobility / disability awareness month.
The wheelchair challenge sheds light on the challenges faced by individuals with limited mobility, while encouraging businesses to join in hosting similar initiatives.

SBS Tanks CEO, Delayne Gray, spends the day in a wheelchair. The initiative was sparked in 2021 when Gray participated in the Little Eden Society Annual CEO Wheelchair Challenge.
On the day, there are wheelchair basketball games that take place with the Ethekwini Spears Basketball team, as well as teams entered by other companies.
Beneficiaries include Made for More, Little Eden and various individuals.
To get involved, the public or companies can make a donation to the event, enter a team to play, or sponsor a hamper as a prize for the raffle.
The public is invited to attend and purchase food and drinks, with all proceeds going towards the fundraising event
