MFM 92.6 identified one of the biggest barriers to successful learning as stationery and, in partnership with Checkers and the Stellenbosch community, donated stationery of R35,000 to schools in the Stellenbosch area.

The donation was divided between St Ida’s Primary School, Kayamandi High School and Makupula High School.
This is the second year that Checkers has supported the station’s on-air initiative to provide stationery to schools in and around Stellenbosch, as there is a massive need for stationery every year.
The contributors hope this campaign will raise more awareness about the fact that stationery plays a vital role in the motivation of a learner, as it enables them to participate in their daily learning processes without worrying about where their material for schooling will come from. The focus on stationery is part of the station’s longer-term approach to improve the education system in South Africa.
