Two high school students, Amani Nchapha and Inati Mtoba, volunteered for a day at Operation Hunger’s new premises for our National Office to help us in our efforts.
Amani and Inata helped our organization in the collection of donations and the delivery of such items. Through the Forgood platform we at Operation Hunger receive a variety of donations including an offer of landline phones from Murray & Roberts for our National and Regional Offices. One of our employees traveled with the student volunteers to their offices to collect the phones. Their offices, located in the Douglas Roberts Campus, were easy to find and well maintained.
Upon entering Murray & Roberts we were greeted at reception with a request to study their Visitor Information Card, a leaflet which provides us with essential health and safety information. As Murray & Roberts is a company committed to protecting the health and safety of their employees, contractors and visitors and to further ensure the protection of the environment we were happy to comply with this request and follow all safety protocols as listed in the event of an emergency.
While reading through the leaflet at reception our contact at M&R, Claire Du Preez sent her fellow to meet us and escort us upstairs to receive the phones. Stepping of the lift and into the offices Claire met us with a smile and showed us the box of phones, packed, ready and waiting. Amani and Inati each grabbed an end and hosted the box up to take back to the car. With a quick goodbye to Claire and associates we packed the car and were off. Arriving back at our National Offices in record time, Amani and Inati hopped out and took the phones inside to the gratitude of the employees of operation Hunger. The students, along with the employees, proceeded to unpack and sort the phones after which they spent the remaining of the day cleaning and packing.
We at Opetration Huunger would like to share our gratitude with Amani and Inati for the time they spent helping us and a most appreciative thank you the Claire Du Preez and Murray & Roberts for their generous donation. Operation Hunger would not be able to help as many as we do without the generosity of people like Clare Du Preez, Amani Nchapha and Inati Mtoba nor the charity of big companies like Murray & Roberts.
