In November 2007, Investec launched the programme "Kgoma - Touch by Giving" which offers Investec staff a simple way to make a monthly donation, directly from their salaries, to a pre-selected list of charities.The objectives of this initiative are:
• To provide a vehicle for Investec staff members to donate directly from their salaries to one or more charitable causes with which they identify.
• To introduce one more way to encourage staff members to participate in social investment initiatives.
• To raise funds for non-profit organisations nationally.
• To raise awareness of the difficulties these organisations face when trying to help the needy in South Africa. This is the first time for Khulisa to be involved in staff donation/corporate responsibility initiative.
On Wednesday 1 October, Lesley Ann attended a business breakfast at Investec Bank when she received an amount of R10,000 as a direct amount resulting from staff who have participated in the Investec Bank ‘Kgoma -Touch by Giving’ initiative.
The amount will be invested in the Hammanskraal Ubuntu Club. A key component of this initiative will be the involvement of the staff in empowering the youth to further their skills and to enhance their employment prospects.
