Bokamoso donation to Tau Manthe Primary School PIC: MORERI SEJAKGOMO

Fifty Bokamoso Private Hospital employees walked barefooted to Tau Manthe Primary School in Mmopane to donate 100 school shoes to learners. The employees put themselves in the place of less privileged pupils who endure the winter ordeal in their quest to acquire education.

The initiative dubbed the 50-50-50-50 Campaign saw 50 male learners, and an equivalent number of girls receiving school shoes. The hospital chief Andre Ackerman and area MP Vincent Seretse, who is also the Minister of Trade and Industry participated in the march.

This, according to Bokamoso Hospital public relations and marketing manager, Mmabatho Machobane is in line with celebrating 50 years of independence.
