Western Cape Premier, Helen Zille delivered an inspirational speech to add to the crowds’ joyful spirit.
A red carpet set the stage for businesses and locals in the area to carry in their food product donations, and the crowd was treated to musical and dance talents on PenBev’s Coca-Cola gig rig stage. The fun-filled line-up included acts by Rouchelle Liedemann (
Radio Tygerberg’s Breakfast presenter and
Skouspel performer); Jan-Hendrik Fourie (guitarist and singer); Neville D (singer), One Crown, the Little Drummer Boys; and the Origin of Dance kids.
In the spirit of giving, PenBev supported the Beaconvale Frail Care Centre by donating much needed supplies to the home for less fortunate who live at the Centre in Mitchells Plain. Thirsty participants were also treated to an ice cold soft drink donated by the company.
“We are truly grateful to be in a position to give back to our local community and we would like to thank Radio Tygerberg for giving us the opportunity to demonstrate our commitment to the local community,” comments Denise Green, Corporate Social Investment manager at PenBev. “We at PenBev wish Madiba a happy birthday and a speedy recovery. We are very fortunate to be part of various Mandela Day activities including that of
Radio Tygerberg,” adds Green.
PenBev staff were lending their support to many communities around the Western Cape by painting, fixing electricity/plumbing issues, making food parcels, and providing parties at educare centres, to name a few.
“Madiba has positively impacted South Africa and the world with his acts of service, humility and forgiveness. These qualities were evident today with organisations, Radio Tygerberg listeners and charities participating on our premises. We at
Radio Tygerberg send a big thank you to PenBev for bringing extra joy to this festive occasion,” comments Hardus Zevenster, CEO at
Radio Tygerberg.
