These efforts were doubled through the CCPB CSI Community Budget, bringing the total donation to more than R28 000. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CCPB South Team, based in Athlone, is passionate about giving back and runs similar initiatives annually, said Priscilla Urquhart, its Head of Public Affairs, Communication and Sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second school identified was Lentegeur LSEN (Learners with Special Educational Needs) School who received stationery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 100 school bags were donated to Kewtown, where many learners cannot afford school essentials, which sees them attend classes without bags, often leaving their books behind at the school owing to a lack of storage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This donation aimed to ensure every learner had a bag for carrying their learning materials in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe two schools were chosen based on employee nominations,\u201d said Urquhart. \u201cKewtown Primary is in an area affected by high crime, gang activity and gender-based violence. One of our team members identified the school as a no-fee institution, in need of support, and CCPB stepped in to bring hope to the community.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Urquhart emphasised the company\u2019s passion for educational initiatives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe believe in the power of education to transform lives,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBy supporting these schools, we hope to make a meaningful difference in the lives of young learners, providing them with the tools they need to build a brighter future.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The handover took place on Thursday 27 February at the Retail Academy at the CCPB offices in Athlone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kewtown Primary\u2019s principal, Chris Balie, said the school catered for around 590 learners from the area and surrounding communities, including Gugulethu and Nyanga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur learners come from very deprived backgrounds, poverty-stricken households, and cannot afford a school bag or basic stationery. This is why our school relies heavily on partners such as Coca-Cola Peninsula Beverages and other partners to donate stationery and bags so our learners can benefit. The school bags will go a long way. We will identify 100 learners that really don\u2019t have bags. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div contenteditable=\"false\" data-embed24=\"Blockquote\" data-pos=\"Middle\" id=\"embed_a20d455c\">\n<div class=\"text\">We believe this will inspire them and contribute to them wanting to come to school and learning more efficiently and effectively.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Natasha Mess, school-governing body chair, said this donation will be a great help to the school community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe at Kewtown Primary would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Coca-Cola for your generous donation of school bags to our school. Your kindness and commitment to supporting education are truly appreciated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The school bags will greatly benefit our learners, providing them with a sense of pride and dignity as they head to school. Your contribution will also help alleviate some of the financial burdens that our learners\u2019 families face. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks again for your kindness and generosity. We are grateful for partners like Coca-Cola who share our passion for education and community development.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A group of 100 learners who attend
