Sappi lends a helping hand to assist communities during Covid-19: Video
Thousands of litres of sanitiser, cloth and surgical masks, soap, porridge and Typek paper were some of the items that were procured and distributed to community clinics, healthcare centres, schools, creches, orphanages and other non-profit organisations in the rural and peri-urban areas of KwaZulu-Natal and Mpumalanga.
We understand that the virus has not just taken its toll in terms of our country’s mortality rate, but that it has also deepened the levels of need that exists in our vulnerable communities. Whilst our contributions have been small in comparison, we would like to share with you some of these initiatives where we have been able to help.
