Epilepsy South Africa is on a drive to raise funds to assist in its psychosocial support programmes.
“Tekkie Tax is a fund-raising campaign that was started in 2013,” said Valentine Muradzikwa, PRO for Epilepsy SA in Geduld.
“Some of the most prolific national welfare organisations in SA joined forces to establish a powerful national fund-raising campaign called National Tekkie Tax Day.
“Since its inception in 2013, the campaign has raised nearly R48-million. During the same time, Tekkie Tax generated sponsored publicity of close to R100-m.”
The project has historically been supported by thousands of individuals, companies, SMMEs, NGOs and schools.
