Smiles for donation from Sandton City
Floor tiles, which have been salvaged from the repositioning of Sandton City, will be used in the ward refurbishment at Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital. Now the ward is not in a usable state, but with Sandton City's help, the Smile Foundation will be able to utilise this ward. The shopping centre recently handed over its donation of floor tiles to the Foundation.
The Smile Foundation is a non-profit organization that brings people together for the purpose of providing expert surgical intervention, creating greater social involvement and enabling sensible corporate social investment, all to make a difference in the lives of children with facial anomalies.
"We are continuously motivated and amazed by the wonderful charities and associations we have encountered in our donation projects, and we are thrilled to be of help to great causes such as the continuous work of the Smile Foundation," says Sharon Swain, Sandton City centre manager. "We hope that the ward will be completed soon, and that the Smile Foundation has a comfortable environment from which to continue their fantastic work."
Throughout the R1.77 billion first phase of the project, emphasis will be placed on recovering, reusing and recycling in all possible instances, as well as supporting and involving the local community where possible. Requests, which must include the charity/non profit registration number and a physical address, can be sent to az.oc.ytrebil@llevol.enna.
