In honour of Mandela day, we had the privilege of donating two buses to Khayelitsha Special School which supports over 450 learners with various learning and physical needs. Founded in 1984 by dedicated community members, it was then converted into a special school in 2002 to address the growing need in the community. Transportation was one of their challenges, impacting their ability to ensure learners arrive on time to receive the quality education they deserve. The buses are 23-seaters which will be customised according to the requirements of learners. “The maintenance of these will be far less than before, and the children will be on time. I’m so grateful to Astron Energy for helping us change the lives of many marginalised children,” said Mrs. Velebhayi, the school's principal. At Astron Energy, we’re committed to making a meaningful impact in the communities we serve. This is in line with our purpose of securing our future together. #AstronEnergy #Monthofcaring #Securingourfuture #MandelaDay
