Greenbox Partnership Report 2022

‘Umntu, Ngumntu, Ngabantu’ – I am because you are, this is a phrase that is often used in settings so much that it becomes meaningless. However, this is not the reality for other entities such as Greenbox and the LEAP Maths and Science School.

Auch das Gardening Projekt wird von der Greenbox unterstützt.

Nelson Mandela Day 2019 – 18 Juli 2019

 

Auch dieses Jahr haben wir die LEAP Science and Maths Schools unterstützt, die mit dem Essen das Mandela Bild zusammen stellen und es anschließend in den Townships an bedürftige Menschen verteilen.

LEAP in partnership with ClearWater Mall hosted the Mandela Day event on 18 July 2019 in the ClearWater Mall Piazza where staff of sponsoring organisations and the public constructed one of the largest food can mosaics ever constructed in South Africa.

The mosaic, in the shape of the Nelson Mandela Day logo was constructed using approximately 20 000 food cans donated by Rhodes Quality.

Wir finanzieren das Gardening Project von Serenity Permaculture

Serenity Permaculture provides training and mentorship for the community members of Langbos.

1: Working with many communities and their gardens a common pattern has been observed the first is that people are not willing to work in a garden for food alone they require a small salary for the running of the system to keep them motivated.

2: there is either feast or famine as the successional planting falls short and beds revert back to weeds after one harvest.

3: Soil Fertility and pest issues arise as soil is not properly respected or managed therefore making the garden maintenance work much more difficult than it should be.

4: After training has been provided it is generally not followed up with support visits which thus provides an environment for the garden team to lose inspiration and to feel neglected.
Our training plan and support structure will ensure successional food, inspired support visits and up to date methods of simple yet effective techniques for organic food production.

Leap school social development day – September 2017

 

We had our Social Development Day on the 28th September 2017, which is a day of giving back. Social Development is an important part of LEAP’s outreach to the community our students come from. It is LEAP’s way of keeping in touch with our roots. Social development activities include visiting our local creches, most of which our students attended themselves or volunteering at nearby old age homes and homes for the disabled. At our creches we teach the children different exercises and partake in educational activities with them as well. In the homes for the seniors and disabled, our students help clean the facilities, assist in cooking as well as feeding. We have an ongoing supportive relationship with our sites, where the students think of meaningful ways of engaging with the people in their communities.

We donated the  Food cans to 11 social development sites, comprising of the following:

  • Sombambisana Creche: Crossroads
  • Sombambisana Disability: Crossroads
  • Sombambisana Seniors: Crossroads 
  • Vuyolwethu Creche: Delft
  • Ethafeni Creche: Nyanga
  • Monwabisi Seniors: New Crossroads 
  • Nolunthando Seniors: Nyanga
  • Nomzamo Seniors: Gugulethu
  • Ithemba Labantu: Philippi 
  • Inga Educare
  • Nomonde

We invited all donors and special guest that participated on Nelson Mandela Day.  We were honoured to have Rhodes Food Group, SA singer Jarred Ricketts ,The Hyprop Foundation (Canal Walk) and Students wearing the Greenbox Tshirts as they could not make it to  join us at this special event. 

LEAP Students donated the boxes of  canned food to the social development projects that they have an ongoing relationship with as listed above. The appreciation of the beneficiaries was priceless and proved that there is no better feeling than making someone smile and being able to give back.

Thank you to Greenbox and all other partners for making this possible.
