Care Initiatives

Newsclip CARES for the community

Newsclip has always been committed to assisting the community. We pride ourselves as a company that cares about its people, and we have a moral duty to care for those in the community. At the beginning of 2009, we got together and nominated and appointed a CARE Committee for the year going forward. The CARE committee is a team within Newsclip that is representative of every department – in this way, everyone gets involved. The team puts forward suggestions of charities in need of support, and from there, we decide which charities to support for the year, structuring our outreach programmes accordingly.

On Wednesday, 31 March, Newsclip’s Care Committee in association with KFC visited the Children’s Oncology ward at the Johannesburg General Hospital, to deliver the many teddy bear’s that were collected from the teddy bear drive at work.

On arrival, the team carried the big packets of teddy bears, and boxes filled with party packs, and were determined to do this in any way they could – even if it meant balancing the boxes on our heads, so that we could carry an extra two packets, we were determined to get the goodies to the kids.

Committee members, together with a surprise pop-in from ‘Chicky’ and his associates, had the opportunity to pay a visit to each child in the Oncology ward. The children were spoilt with teddy bears; party packs; bandanas; ‘Saved by grace’ bracelets; and a chicky-meal courtesy of KFC.

Pure bliss lit up each and every room in the ward, and although it had seemed that what we had done was something small to show these children that they are loved, to these children we had done something larger than life for them, and we had helped them find their smiles again.

Looking back on this experience, with what all of these children are going through at such a young age, they are so happy and content with life, that it makes us adults almost feel like we are the kids, putting us to shame because we are always needing more. A lesson was learnt to all that it is so important to appreciate what we have; take time to enjoy what we have; and not to take what we have for granted – clichéd it might seem, but in all realness, in fact true.

The day was thoroughly enjoyed by all, and a heartfelt experience that will be remembered for many years to come

On Wednesday, 28 July, Newsclip’s Care Committee visited the SAVF Old Age Home. For this year’s outreach initiative, the committee presented residents with goodie bags filled with chips; snuggly Winter socks; and Newsclip placemats – thanks Arti Art for the stunning designs.

The fun-filled day was packed with different activities, such as traditional African face painting with Kerry, Nikki and Juliet; bingo games in the company of Enhle, Ilze, Riani and Brian; and musical entertainment with beautiful melodies by Helen, Josina and Angela – I think all can give Whitney Houston a run for her money, together with a Fred Astaire dance number by Sarah and I.

To keep tummys full and warm, committee members handed out cookies and Milo to all the residents.

Getting to meet the residents and putting a cup of Milo in their one hand and a biscuit in the other, was a truly wonderful experience. The visit was thoroughly enjoyed by all – and one where not only Newsclip had to entertain the SAVF residents, the SAVF residents entertained us with their stories and gestures.

I learnt from the day that no matter what, we need to be grateful for what we have and most importantly, never to forget about our parents and/ or guardians who raised us. Love them unconditionally no matter what circumstances they are in, or will be in one day. Remember, it was them who put you through school; fed you; put a roof over your head; and clothed you. They rubbed your tummy when it was sore and changed your nappy when you were a baby, they cared for you and loved you unconditionally.

We are proud. Newsclip cares, we really do. Corporates can make a difference. Together we can change lives, and it takes very little to do so. While material investments are important, love and care are free. Many times, that is all that’s needed.
